Wow. Ademolaefuwape, you sound like a person in trouble.  You Logon and immediate ask a question about sexual harassment.  I doubt that you want to learn to do it.  It is a federal offense.\nSexual harassment is defined as:\n“Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitutes sexual harassment when submission to or rejection of this conduct explicitly or implicitly affects an individual's employment, unreasonably interferes with an individual's work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment.”\n\nSee the site below for additional details

It's not sexual harassment, just unprofessional. If the female employee refuses, and he keeps making attempts, then it would be harassment.

write down everything that happens and who was present when it happened. \nTell your boss you are offended by the comments. \nIf it continues, contact the EEOC in your area. \n\nhttp://www.eeoc.gov/\nhttp://www.eeoc.gov/types/race.html <---defines a hostile work environment based on what you typed.

Usually the website for the Department of Labor carries that kind of stuff.  Is a U.S. gov't site, so should be the most reliable you could get?

Tell them "I'm offended by that." Could fall under the sexual harrassment category (but it doesn't have to be sexual). \nOnce they've been notified, you are free to escalate. Supervisor can't ignore it if you have told them. This can lead to civil rights and right-to-work issues. HTH!

The next time that your boss tells you that "this is a man's job", remind him that he is breaking the law.  A job is a job, there no longer is a "man's" job, just like there is no longer a "woman's" job.\n\nAlso let him know that if there is any more harassment by your co-workers, you will consider that as management's consent and approval of the unacceptable behavior, and you are prepared to take appropriate action, legal and otherwise.\n\nLet him know that you have started a log of inappropriate action/ behavior of fellow employees and management personnel. Starting with the instant conversation, you are documenting everything that is said and done (who, what, where, when, time, place, and witnesses), that you consider to be harassment or sexual discrimination, and/ or related matters such as counselling sessions that you may be involved in.\n\nAlso make him aware that any adverse action such as termination, discipline, demotion, or transfer to a less desirable position will be considered retaliation, and if it happens you will take further more aggressive action.\n\nTell him these are not threats but commitments. \n\nAsk him if that is "tough enough"!

Go to the CAB and/or look in phone book for a local Law Centre (free lawyers - if one of them is qualified in employment law they will take on your case if then think it has merit.) Your employer is liable for the actions of its employees\n\nMeanwhile, take detailed notes of the bullying: when, what, who, why. Find out what your workplace grievance procedure is (you have to go through this before you can bring a claim if thats what you end up doing). Also if you have a trade union, speak to them first. Good luck.

That is tricky.  What kind of history do you have with the person?  Is the person known to be violent?  What is the context?  Sometimes you should ignore it and go on.  Sometimes you should take it very seriously and seek legal help.  If you genuinely fear for your safety, have a restraining order filed against the individual.  If the person has attempted to harm you, file charges with the police.  It helps if there are witnesses.  If you are at work, let your employer/supervisor know immediately.  If you are not provided a safe work environment, you can file a sexual harassment complaint.  I know, it's not sexual; but it falls under sexual harassment anyway.

Try the EEOC.  The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.  They are a division of the Department of Labor and handle discrimination cases and hostile work environment situations.  If it is an issue with pay or employees working off of the clock, the Department of Labor in your state would handle it.  \n\nAlso, try going to Human Resources first and make sure to document it.  (Who, when, what, where, why)  It is the job of Human Resources to handle internal complaints.  If they retaliate against you (illegal) and you document all of the above, you have a more solid claim with the EEOC.
