In the Company of Men
Author: James Gruber
Publisher: UPNE
ISBN: 9781555536381
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
Despite over twenty years of discussion and study, sexual harassment remains a significant problem in the workplace. Current research focusing on organizational policy and women's career development often ignores the reality of male dominance, prevalent in areas such as the military, the police, and firefighting-occupations that see not only more frequent but also more severe harassment, even sexual assault. Meanwhile, new evidence points to the fact that men are largely responsible not only for the harassment of women but for most harassment of other men as well. This landmark collection of original essays investigates the links between male dominance and sexual harassment in light of new research and more complex understandings of masculinity. Treated not merely as a matter of worker sex ratios but as an inherent element of workplace culture, male dominance is observed from a variety of quantitative and qualitative approaches ranging from criminology and sociology to psychology and gender studies. Integrating both men's and women's viewpoints, research across occupational groups, and studies from both the United States and Europe, the chapters provide an invaluable international perspective into two inextricably intertwined problems rooted in cultural constructions of gender and institutional roles and processes.

Sexual Harassment of Women
Author: National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309470870
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
Over the last few decades, research, activity, and funding has been devoted to improving the recruitment, retention, and advancement of women in the fields of science, engineering, and medicine. In recent years the diversity of those participating in these fields, particularly the participation of women, has improved and there are significantly more women entering careers and studying science, engineering, and medicine than ever before. However, as women increasingly enter these fields they face biases and barriers and it is not surprising that sexual harassment is one of these barriers. Over thirty years the incidence of sexual harassment in different industries has held steady, yet now more women are in the workforce and in academia, and in the fields of science, engineering, and medicine (as students and faculty) and so more women are experiencing sexual harassment as they work and learn. Over the last several years, revelations of the sexual harassment experienced by women in the workplace and in academic settings have raised urgent questions about the specific impact of this discriminatory behavior on women and the extent to which it is limiting their careers. Sexual Harassment of Women explores the influence of sexual harassment in academia on the career advancement of women in the scientific, technical, and medical workforce. This report reviews the research on the extent to which women in the fields of science, engineering, and medicine are victimized by sexual harassment and examines the existing information on the extent to which sexual harassment in academia negatively impacts the recruitment, retention, and advancement of women pursuing scientific, engineering, technical, and medical careers. It also identifies and analyzes the policies, strategies and practices that have been the most successful in preventing and addressing sexual harassment in these settings.

Prevention of Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace
Author: Deepa Rafeeque
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1644291851
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
The sexual harassment of women at workplace is a highly debated topic in the society. Of late, the sexual harassment cases are being reported on a daily basis from every corner of the country. There could be many instances which are not reported also. Though the action on receiving such complaints is yet to bring an apparent change in the workplace. Primary reason for inaction appears to be ignorance of the law. Whether, it’s an ‘aggrieved woman’ or the respondent or the witnesses or the Internal Committee or an Organisation itself cannot act on a complaint unless the provisions of the law are known to them. The Guide on The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 is simple reference book. Our endeavour is to help the people who need to use this law for any purpose. The book can be used as a ‘ready reckoner’ for every woman and others to understand the procedure and limitations, and above all for the organizations to provide a safe and secure workplace. It covers the basic legal provisions of the Act ,the Rules and Regulations, the complaint handling process, and the measures to be taken by the management of Corporates and Educational Institutions for the prevention and prohibition of sexual harassment of women at the workplace. I believe, this book will be helpful for all including the employers, trainers, NGOs and the public as a whole.
