ABOUT THE
BOOK
Do you think you have to put up with inappropriate sexual behavior to get ahead
in your career? Or have you been the victim of sexual harassment and don't know
to do about it?
Are you concerned that anything you do or say could be interpreted as sexual
harassment? What are the rules and boundaries?
The Sexual Harassment Handbook is the first book that gives you the insight to
assess a sexual situation on the job and take effective action, before the
lawyers are called in.
Many situations involving sexual harassment can be prevented or resolved if you
recognize what’s happening and know what to do. The Sexual Harassment Handbook
answers questions such as:
|
-
What is the main reason people
sue over sexual harassment?
-
Can men be sexually harassed?
-
Can I be harassed if I am a
manager or supervisor?
-
Why is dating a subordinate
almost always a bad idea?
