More often than not when we discuss harassment at work the topic quickly shifts to sexual harassment. There's no doubt that it is an ethical issue in business that should be taken very, very seriously - and if you're not sure why then you need to read about the#MeToo Movement. While we shouldn't forget that there are many forms of harassment in the workplace, sexual harassment is one that deserves to be addressed on its own.

According to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), in 2018 alone there were more than7,600allegations of sexual harassment made. Not only that but the resulting monetary benefits for those plaintiffs were in excess of $56.6 million - an indication of the validity of those claims.

When we take an even closer look at this ethical issue, we find that54%of women report having experienced unwanted sexual advances in the workplace and 23% said that the instance of sexual harassment actually involved a superior.

These numbers paint a troubling reality and present real challenges to creating a workplace environment where people feel secure and comfortable.

It is a fact, what is the best way you have found to deal with it?
