Because sexual harassment is a serious problem, people need to learn how to avoid it. There are several strategies to prevent harassment. First, the company should have a sexual harassment policy. The policy should contain a definition of sexual harassment, no uncertain or broad items such as sexual harassment not tolerated, punishments for violators, procedure for handling complaints of sexual harassment, the company's responsibility to investigate the matter, and prohibition of retaliation after the victims reported the incident. There should be training programs for employees, supervisors and managers. The training program for employees should be at least once a year. In the program, employees should be trained on the definition of sexual harassment, clarity on the rights employees have in the workplace to resist sexual harassment, being familiar with the harassment reporting procedure, and the company should encourage employees to use politics. Training programs for supervisors should also take place at least once a year. Training for supervisors and managers should be separate from training for employees. Supervisors should be trained to learn about sexual harassment and the procedure for handling complaints. Training programs are required by some states, such as California, Connecticut, and Maine. Other states encourage businesses to open programs although this is not required by law. As managers, they should be responsible for the work environment. Managers should periodically receive feedback from the workplace to find out if incidents of harassment have occurred. It's a good way to maintain communication with employees. If employees complain...... middle of paper......ephone. They can create discussion groups for female and male victims to share experiences and seek comfort from others. Victims can join the organization that deals with the rescue of sexual harassment. The telephone hotline is a popular way for victims. We can conclude from the phenomenon that victims tend to choose counseling to seek help. Consistent counseling can help victims recover from the shadow of sexual harassment. There are still other researchers who argue that the effects of sexual harassment will follow victims throughout their lives. If victims wish to talk about their experience, they can seek help from a psychologist or therapist. But it could be expensive. For those who do not have enough money to find a professional counselor, the telephone hotline is a good choice. The privacy of the victims gets good protection in this way.
