Sexual Harassment in public, private, or the workplace

Are you a victim
Are you being subjected to unwelcome sexual gestures or behaviour? Are you being subjected to sexually coloured remarks, physical contact and advances, shown pornography, or are sexual favours being demanded of you? If you have answered yes to any of these, you are a victim of sexual harassment.

 

What can you do?
Say no to such harassment. It will not stop on its own. File a written complaint with Anti-sexual harassment committee of your office and report to police.


The Law can help you fight for your rights
