Sexual harassment
at work

Nearly half of women who experienced in-work harassment encountered it online, a report has found, warning that employers are putting too much emphasis on women reporting harassment and not enough on preventative measures.

A report from the Fawcett Society found 45 per cent of women who had experienced harassment encountered it online through sexual messages, cyber harassment and sexual calls.

Almost a quarter of women who had been sexually harassed said the harassment had increased or escalated since the start of the pandemic while they were working from home.
