A recent study found that 30% of workers have experienced sexual harassment in the past 12 months.
With the majority of incidents involving a senior manager or a colleague at peer level.
44% said that their organisation did nothing or turned a blind eye to their issue.
With 76% spent experiencing significant emotional impairment and being off work for between 1 and 10 days.
Employees should be made to feel safe to make complaints about sexual harassment.
And need to believe that their complaints will be taken seriously and dealt with appropriately
