Description

Sexual harassment is defined as any unwanted conduct of a sexual nature that has the purpose or effect of:

• violating a person’s dignity or
• creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment

Even if a harasser did not intend to cause harm to a victim, it could still be a case of sexual harassment.

To help prevent sexual harassment, it is crucial that people:

• are aware of how other people might perceive different types of behaviour
• recognise behaviours that could be considered sexual harassment
• know how to respond if they experience or witness sexual harassment
• understand the importance of reporting and how to report a complaint

This course helps employees recognise sexual harassment through a range of scenario-based interactions. It also includes an interactive branching activity that explores how victims and bystanders can respond appropriately.
