Sexual Harassment Awareness Training Reviews

Very easy to understand and clear.

Sexual Harassment Awareness Training is very informative and helpful to all employees in any organization.

Good features was that it focused on how the victim and or anyone present feels rather than intent and that it pointed out that sexual harassment can happen to anyone and can be from a woman to a man. It also features two men who had been in a relationship, all of which I felt was good. However when it stated that both men and women can be sexually harassed it neglected to mention that the majority of victims are in fact female – A recent survey found 85% of women aged 18-24 had experienced sexual harassment (https://www.tuc.org.uk/sites/default/files/SexualHarassmentreport2016.pdf) and furthermore that the perpetrators of sexual harassment are usually men. It then further gave video examples (which were very good) of what was and what was not sexual harassment. Not a single one of these featured a woman being sexually harassed. Either the videos features the woman as the perpetrator or as in the final video (See below screenshot) a man behaving in a way that made a female employee uncomfortable but that was not in this instance sexual harassment. I personally think a huge plate being dropped when a training module on sexual harassment does not in fact feature sexual harassment happening to a woman. Additionally, the module goes on to confuse the word gender with sex in the equalities act when listing protected characteristics – which I thought was potentially a bit confusing as the actual word in the act is sex – not gender.
