Description: Sexual harassment affects far more than the people directly involved. And everyone deserves to feel safe and respected at work. Whether in the form of risque jokes or inappropriate physical contact, sexual harassment can lead to increased absenteeism, greater anxiety and reduced productivity. Leading by example, being conscientious of your own behavior, is the first step to creating a better workplace free of discomfort, distrust and fear.
