Sexual harassment is a big part of the work environment and takes place in the political and academic setting, as well as in the workplace. Which of the following choices is a true statement about sexual harassment?
  1. Older women who report are often ignored or ridiculed
  2. Younger, prettier women who report are often said to be asking for it
  3. Victims often face difficulties such as unemployment or demotions if they resistor report
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answer: D - All of the choices listed in this question are true statements about sexual harassment. Unfortunately, sexual harassment is still very much a part of many work environments. One of the misconceptions about it is that it is often reported. A survey has found that of the women that were harassed, 75% ignored the harassment and only 18% reported the harassment. It’s not reported often for all of the above reasons. Although it appears to be less common in men, they can also be victims of sexual harassment.
