Forms of Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment can occur against women or men. It includes harassment based on real or perceived sexual orientation. Sexual harassment can be subtle or extreme. It may include:
- Unwanted touching, hugging or kissing
- Repeatedly asking for a date, making inappropriate suggestions or requests for sexual activity
- Inappropriate e-mails, phone calls or messaging, including messages sent through a third party
- Molestation, sexual assault or battery
- Threatened job loss if you do not engage in sexual activity

You will be heard and believed.
