Sexual harassment is defined as unwelcome verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that happens in the workplace or in public. It can include unwanted touching, sexual comments, suggestive materials, or name calling related to one's sex. Sexual harassment is illegal and can have negative effects such as decreased performance, job loss, stress, and relocation. Victims should first tell the harasser to stop if comfortable. A formal complaint can then be made to the employer or proper authorities by taking notes of incidents.
