Sexual harassment
CONCLUSION
• People have different perceptions of what constitutes
sexual harassment but behavior is more likely to be
seen as harassment if there is a power difference
between the person being harassed and the
harasser. Women are sometimes reluctant to label
their own experiences as sexual harassment
because they do not think they are serious enough;
this obviously has implications for research which
seeks to clarify the prevalence of the problem. But
sexual harassment does have a negative impact both
in the short and long term.
