How do you react to sexual harassment at work place?

Are you sure that you are not sexually harassed at your workplace?  Do you know the type of illegal discriminations people usually suffer in an organization? If you are not sure about this, it is high time you pay a close attention to your surroundings.

In many instances, colleagues and seniors make unwelcome advances towards other employees.  These could be in different forms like requests for sexual favor, undesirable verbal or physical conduct, unnatural sexual behavior etc. Sometimes, you realize it. Sometimes it happens out of ignorance.

Do you have any idea about its impact on you? The illegal harassment may interfere into your work performance, can damage your mental stability and at the most can create an offensive work environment.  You may not feel secure both mentally and physically.  Indeed, you can’t help but mess up with company terms and conditions and finally quit your job.

Well, what should you do in such condition?  You need legal assistance at state and federal level. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 enacted anti-discrimination law in some states.   This could be for both opposite sex and same sex harassment.
