What is Sexual Harassment?

The U.S. Equal Opportunity Employment Commission (EEOC) defines workplace sexual harassment as unwelcome sexual advances or conduct of a sexual nature which interferes with the performance of an employee’s job or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment.

Sexual harassment occurs in many forms, including, but not limited to:

• Unwanted touching
• Sexual gestures
• Unwanted advances
• Inappropriate remarks

Who Is Responsible?
