Is this Sexual Harassment?

It's called a making pass. If he repeats that kind of stuff too often, or tries to leverage his boss status to make you accept it, then it becomes harassment.

"I talked to my employer and he told me that this individual had harassed people in this way before, but he was not going to do anything about it, and if I couldn't handle it I should quit."\n\nGet this is writing from the employer then you can go to your state's  workforce commission and file a formal complaint.  Send your complaint in an e-mail and give the employer time to respond.\n\nDon't take any cr*p but you also must have solid ground on which to fight. Good luck.

If your HR manager realizes his strange behavior, you should feel comfortable enough to talk to him and find out what the problem is. Are you doing something wrong or is he just mad crushing on you!! Either way a second party has confirmed a noticable weird behavior by him so you do have some back up if thinigs don't go as planed.

If your manager has not filed any complaints on you,then he shouldn't allow this "fellow" employee to harass you with it. Maybe they ought to check out this fellow employee first. I would file a complaint with the manager on the "fellow employee" for harassment. Especially it I know I am innocent.

Yes, you should most certainly report your a** hole boss. He's a creep, and that kind of talk should never be forced into the workforce.

The stock answer is that the law in this matter should cut both ways. Rea;ity is that this is not always the case. Some will find it hard to believe that any man can be offended by the actions you describe, so be ready for some flack if you go through with filing a complaint. Realize that to make your position unassailable that you should first let your boss know that you find her actions totally inappropriate. If she persists drive on and do what you have to do.

In this day and age I would say no but it really depends on what this person means by it.  I've had female co-workers call me that and I wasn't offended because I know they aren't flirting with me. I think of it as sort of a term of endearment.  But if a this guy is trying to get a date or just in your pants then I'd have to say no.

There's a big difference between unwanted sexual remarks (harassment), and calling a phone sex line to hear those comments. Now when it comes to my private time, I personally enjoy a little dirty talk from the right man.

The 'rude' thing is one matter--that should be something that your boss can settle if they're any kind of boss at all--let him or her know that this has been going  on for some time and it is making doing your job really difficult-------It's this "grabbing"thing that is soooo out of line that it reeks--when someone touches you without your giving the liberty THAT my dear is unlawful--and it is so whether the jackass is male or female and needs to be dealt with as such---and if this "grabbing" has sexual overtones--it immediately ups the antee to a whole new level and can be considered assault if not sexual assault or even sexual harassment---don't let it slide--report it and end it NOW--whoever this squirrel is --they do what they do because they've been getting by with it and sooner or later someone is going to be hurt big time--I personally know a couple of gals that would send this girl to Jesus

Looks like the manager has a history of sexually harrassing female employees. I'd give this one a pass, but if it happens again in any form, report him.

You need to be very careful of how you handle this. If you approach her, she could take it as sexual harassment. Either way it goes, this will effect your job.  I would suggest finding another job before bringing this up to her. I understand that this may not be as easy as it sounds, but you should understand that once you do bring this up, things at work will change. What if she feels the way that you do, but someone later breaks it off? Will you still be able to work with her? Will she want to work with you? You also need to think about what will happen if she doesn't respond well to you. She may not take it as far as the sexual harassment that I mentioned earlier, but it could make her uncomfortable enough to not want to work with you anymore. You are probably safer fantasizing about her for now.

I agree is sounds like she is targeting you. Speak to a supervisor or the Human resources department at your work. What applies for one employee applies to all, and if she is saying explicit things even on her break..if it is in the workplace and in earshot of someone who may not find it appropriate, it still counts, break or not. Dont necesarily file a complaint on her unless you have to, or she does or says something extremely inappropriate. you dont want to stoop to her level. But at least make it known to the person you speak to about this matter the entire situation. Iwould explain like you explained in your question on here. It was well put. Or even write it out first on the computer or a peice of paper in case you remember other thigns before you speak to someone. Good luck with you situation. You should not have to put up with that behavior. I can't stand people like that.

It is your responsibility to report the situation,she is not trustworthy.Let the chips fall where they may or you might be implicated in her indiscretions.\n  Don't confront her,or she will drag you down with her,and accuse you of "sexual harrasment"..you don't want that tag..women who like to climb ladders in a company love to use that as a way of achieving higher success,and use you to do it . \n  Don't get caught up in her lying world by trying to be a nice guy. \n  Nice guys finish last.

technically yes, it could be considered sexual harassment. Any sexual attention that could be undesired or out of place can be considered sexual harassment. In all honestly a LOT of things that go on in a work or even school enviroment would be harassemnt. It just depends on the people and what boundraies they have when it comes to that stuff. But legally yes.

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"!

wait a second, i think i am confused or u are either using horribly bad puns. if you are implying that you are straight and u know this gay guy who wants to give you anal sex then you should be flattered yet offended because that is still sexual harrassment whether gay or not. u couldnt say that to a woman right. and by the way i'm gay so gay guys dont get mad at my answer.

Tell her to stop hanging around him or just to simply state that she's not interested and that he needs to keep his grubby paws to himself. If she's actually told him to stop before and he won't listen, then that can fall under "sexual battery". If it's in the workplace, even better. The sparks will really fly at the first mention of sexual harrassment cause no employer wants to get sued.
