Harassment: What is it?

Sexual Harassment Myths
- Only
women can be harassed. This is not true. Courts
have previously ruled that a man can be harassed
by a woman, although such a situation is slightly
more rare than a male harassing a woman.
- A
woman can't harass another woman and a man can't
harass another man. This is not true. The U.S.
Supreme Court has recognized that illegal sexual
harassment can occur between people of the same
sex.
- Sexual
harassment can only occur in a workplace. This
is not true. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled
that teachers, professors, and other individuals
with authority in school systems (including
universities and colleges) can sexually harass
students in violation of the law. While the
case was decided under Title IX of the Education
Amendments of 1972, rather than Title VII of
the Civil Rights Act of 1964 the implication
was the same: a teacher can sexually harass
a student.
- Only
supervisors or those in authority positions
can be a harasser. This is not true. A harasser
can be a coworker and, in some cases, a third
party such as an agent or client of the employer.
The key is whether the employer knew or should
have known of the harassing behavior and failed
to take action.
If
you are a victim of sexual harassment in the workplace,
there are steps that you can take to stop the
problem and protect your right to a legal remedy.
