Facts About Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination that violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitutes sexual harassment when submission to or rejection of this conduct explicitly or implicitly affects an individual’s employment, unreasonably interferes with an individual’s work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment.

Sexual harassment can occur in a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to the following:

• The victim as well as the harasser may be a woman or a man. The victim does not have to be of the opposite sex.
• The harasser can be the victim’s supervisor, an agent of the employer, a supervisor in another area, a co-worker, or a non-employee.
• The victim does not have to be the person harassed but could be anyone affected by the offensive conduct.
• Unlawful sexual harassment may occur without economic injury to or discharge of the victim.
• The harasser’s conduct must be unwelcome.

It is helpful for the victim to directly inform the harasser that the conduct is unwelcome and must stop. The victim should use any employer complaint mechanism or grievance system available.

When investigating allegations of sexual harassment, EEOC looks at the whole record: the circumstances, such as the nature of the sexual advances, and the context in which the alleged incidents occurred. A determination on the allegations is made from the facts on a case-by-case basis.

Prevention is the best tool to eliminate sexual harassment in the workplace. Employers are encouraged to take steps necessary to prevent sexual harassment from occurring. They should clearly communicate to employees that sexual harassment will not be tolerated. They can do so by establishing an effective complaint or grievance process and taking immediate and appropriate action when an employee complains.

What to expect after an interview

1) Do not expect to be hired on the spot Candidates must realise that interviewers usually are not there to hire anybody immediately. They are only trying to make a screening decision to determine whether the company should talk with you further. By the end of the interview, most companies will try to spell out as clearly as possible what to expect next. (Whom any further action will come from and when.) 2) How companies tell you they are interested Even when interviewers think a candidate is highly qualified, they will rarely promise anything because they canot be certain what their company might decide later. They may encourage you to try to build interest in working for the company, but they will not make promises. A candidate under active consideration can usually expect an invitation to a second interview, usually at a company location, or a request for more information within a short time. 3) How you can tell them you are interested If you have a strong interest in a company, you may write to the interviewer confirming that interest. You should mention the interviewer’s name, time and date of the original interview, plus any important points discussed. Another good way to demonstrate interest in a company is to demonstrate knowledge of it. Candidates, especially those already invited to a second interview, should research the company on the web, read the annual report, company literature, and anything they can find about the company if they have not already. 4) How they tell you “NO!” During an interview, it sometimes becomes obvious that a candidate’s interests and a company’s opportunities simply do not match. A good interviewer will frankly, but courteously tell the candidate, saving each party time. In many cases, candidates who are not offered a job will be informed within a few weeks of the interview. In other cases, candidates may not receive any further correspondence unless a suitable position is identified before their date of availability. A negative reply may dent your ego, but almost everybody hears a “No” or two before they land a job.
