Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Sexual harassment in the workplace is a societal norm that generates discomfort, especially among women. This study aims to detect and address patterns of sexual harassment in the workplace from an industrial and organizational psychology perspective. They are analyzing data using a literature review research strategy. The identification results revealed that five identifiable aspects of sexual harassment occurred. The specified process begins with the leader’s roles and then progresses to constructing other cultures, the victim’s emotional labor, and decreasing their performance. Based on this, we argue that sexual harassment can be avoided by enhancing the organization’s and its leaders’ tasks, as well as establishing a neutral institute to take care of workplace sexual harassment accusations. Keywords: pattern of sexual harassment, sexual harassment at work, sexual harassment treatment, gender equality
