sexual harassment Sexual harassment in the workplace is against the law under the Equal Opportunity Act 2010 (Vic) and the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth). Sexual harassment describes a wide range of unwelcome behaviour of a sexual nature, which could reasonably be expected to make a person feel offended, humiliated or intimidated.
What is sexual harassment? It is any form of unwelcome sexual attention. It has nothing to do with mutual attraction or friendship between people, which is normal and positive. Sexual harassment, on the other hand, involves humiliation or offence to the victim. It's not fun, flattering or flirting. Sexual harassment can happen to anyone. Sexual harassment can be physical, verbal or written.
Sexual harassment could be: • unwelcome physical touching • sexual or suggestive comments, jokes or taunts • unwelcome requests for sex • the display of clearly sexual material (such as photos, pin-ups or pictures) or reading matter (such as e-mails, faxes or letters) • questions about a person's sex life • displaying sexually offensive posters, pictures or screensavers
