If everyone would be willing to take these types of classes, perhaps sexual harassment would not be such a big problem. For a moment let's say that

Persuasive Essay On Cyber Gender Harassment
Therefore, the more we wait for a solution, the more women get subjected to online abuse Providing a solution for cyber gender harassment is in
many ways difficult not just within the African context but all over the world. This is because democratic countries as well as human rights believe in
freedom. "First Amendment protects the right to speak anonymously. In McIntyre v. Ohio Elections Commission, the Supreme Court held that First
Amendment protection extends to a writer's decision to speak anonymously" (Jameson 2008, pg. 239). To ban people from using the internet will
impede their freedom of expression which is a right that we all should have (Hackett, 2016). Therefore in most democratic countries the law operates
in protection of the first amendment as well as the anonymity of an individual. Anonymity is also one of the things that enhance free speech. This is
because the individual's privacy is being protected from abuse against governments that hinder free speech. Human rights activists believe in the right
to free speech however great freedom does come with a great price and in this case cyber harassment and abuse. Therefore tackling cyber gender
harassment will have to maintain the rights of the victim as well as the perpetrator. At the same time, anonymity constitutes a lack of accountability.

Sexual Harassment
Sexual Harassment can take many forms; including a request for sexual favors; unwelcome sexual advances towards others, verbal, physical, or
foreseeable conduct of a sexual nature towards people. This illegal conduct could occur in houses, or public places, hotels, restaurants, and can most
often occur in the workplace. Employers, especially in the service industries, should pay careful attention to complaints by employees about customer
conduct. An employer can be held liable under Title VII, for customerharassment if it fails to remedy or prevent a customer–created hostile work
environment. Sexual harassment can occur in a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to the following:

At trial, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Lockard against both Pizza Hut and the franchisee. Pizza Hut filed post–trial motions claiming Lockard
could not hold Pizza Hut liable for customer–created hostile work environment. The trial court agreed.
The Tenth Circuit reversed the trial court and ruled that employers could be vicariously liable under Title VII for acts of harassment by customers. The
court reasoned that the proper focus of a hostile work environment inquiry is whether the workplace is permeated with discriminatory intimidation,
ridicule and insult. Thus, the court reasoned an employer who condones or tolerates the creation of such an environment should be held liable,
regardless of whether a supervisor, co–employee, or a non–employee creates the environment.
Accordingly, the court held that an employer may be liable for customer harassment if it fails to remedy or prevent a customer–created hostile work

Cyber stalking, Identity theft and fraud are some of the most common cyber–crimes. Anyone could be a victim of these types of crimes; the crimes
could target small amounts of money and up to millions of dollars and they also target information that could be useful to cause harm to an individual
or to an organization.
According to the American Life Project 's January 2009 report about adults and social networking websites, 75 percent of Internet users in the 18–24
age group have a profile on a social networking Web site. Computers give people the possibility to access the Internet and socialize with people around
the world. Social networks give easy access to people's information which makes it a good tool for cyber–stalking. Cyber–stalking is a crime and is
committed when a person uses the web to stalk another person and threatens the person to inflict harm of any kind. The person being stalked has to
receive any type of unwanted messages or harassment from the stalker to be considered a crime. If a person is looking at a person profile in face
book constantly, that is not consider stalking as long as the person on the profile is not being bothered. It can be hard to find out when a person is a
victim of cyber–stalking because when they place their information on the web it becomes accessible to any person. Finding information about any

Michael Mullen says "the single biggest existential threat that 's out there, I think, is cyber" ("Daily Quotes" n.pag.). This quote supports how
cyber–crime can be very dangerous and should be looked at closer by individuals in our society. As the world's computer technologies advance
criminals find ways to make theft, fraud, and harassment easier and harder to resolve. Crimes committed through a computer are referred to as
cyber–crimes and there are six common computer crimes to look out for, which is fraud, computer trespassing, hardware hijacking, spam, information
warfare, and the most common bullying, stalking, and harassment.
Fraud is one of the fastest types of crime out there. It is where criminals hack into personal accounts to access funds or website databases in order to
get to consumer details. They can get Social Security numbers through websites which can be used to get credit cards or loans in someone else's name,
and this fraud is considered identity theft. A new type of computer fraud is where criminals hack into someone else's wireless internet connection and
use it without having to pay a penny.
Computer trespassing is another type of fraud. Criminals are able to gain access to personal or company computers to look through files, peek at
website browsing history, gain passwords, and can even save files to the computer, which are often viruses. In most circumstances, computer

The Supreme Court (Harris v Forklift) concluded that a hostile or abusive work environment can be determined only by looking at all the
circumstances. According to established guidance, some factors could be part of the "circumstances" in a case. They include frequency of
discriminatory conduct; severity of the conduct; whether it is physically threatening or humiliating or merely offensive utterance; and whether it
unreasonably interferes with an employee's work performance. Brittany often witnessed Robert staring at the bikini photo and he actually took the
photo to scan and make his computer screensaver (frequency and severity). Although Robert's conduct was not necessarily physically threatening, it
was humiliating and offensive. After voicing her displeasure, Robert informed Brittany's supervisor that she was not performing her duties in a timely
manner. This upset Brittany therefore causing several missed workdays (work interference). These actions are clear violations of a hostile environment
sexual harassment.
EEOC determines sexual harassment to be unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual
nature. In quid pro quo cases, an offense occurs if it pertains to conditions of the employee's employment or institutes the foundation for employment
decisions affecting the employee.

undesirable or unwelcome sexual conduct which makes people feel annoyed, embarrassed or scared (University of Minnesota 2015). Normally, female
employees are most likely to be the pity victims of sexual harassment. However, male employees can be the victims too. Appendix 5 shows the snapshot
of statistics about sexual harassment in the workplace.
For most female today, it is important to get a job in order to be successful and independent women. It is a transformation from past decades. The
amount of female employees in the workplace is getting more and more. In Malaysia, female employees consist of 38.60 % of total labor force in
2013. By comparing to 1990, involvement of women in the workplace has increased 1.1% (Trading Economics 2015). Appendix 6 shows the
percentages of female workforce in the workplace in Malaysia in different years. Since involvement of women in the workplace is getting more and
more, we believe that sexual harassment against female employees will increase.
The aim of this training program is to help trainees understand sexual harassment more in the workplace. Sexual harassment is part of the sex

Sexual Harassment And The Civil Rights Act Of 1964 Essay
Scott St. Clair
Gina Olmo
December 15, 2016
Background of Sexual Harassment
Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination. Federal law as well as various state
fair–employment laws prohibit employers with 15 or more employees from treating members of one sex or race differently from members of the
opposite sex or another race in terms, conditions, or privileges of employment. The statutory and regulatory laws govern the entire employment process
from pre–employment activities such as recruiting, through an employee 's career with the organization, including termination. The prohibition against
sex discrimination imposes responsibility upon employers to afford their employees an environment free from sexual harassment and from the fear that
it may occur. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) can file lawsuits on behalf of victims of sexual harassment. The legal process
is long and cumbersome it can be years from the first complaint to the final verdict. Though, Title VII offers reinstatement to previous job, the
individual may be harassed by co–workers making conditions even more uncomfortable than they were beforehand. However, the solutions proposed
might seem comprehensive in plans to lessen sexual harassment in the workplace and punishment of harassers. The proposed measures fail to cover all
aspects of harassment, though the truth is, it is virtually impossible to formulate a plan to do so.

The Pros And Cons Of Cyber Stalkinging

In another case, the victim, Rutgers, committed suicide when two of his roommates posted his sex tapes on the internet. Thus, he was embarrassed by
this act that he committed suicide from falling on the top of George Washington Bridge. Before falling from bridge, he posted his status on facebook,
eight minutes before his death, commenting "jumping off the GW Bridge sorry" . Many people think that as cyber–stalking does not engage physical
interaction and restricted to virtual world, it is less harming and threatening but it is not correct view. The misuse of technology is fastest rising area of

Gilbert (1999) asserted that:
"In real life, stalkers generally stalk in propinquity to their victims. They want themselves to be noticed by victim and to know that they are there. They
survive on the fear of the victim. On the internet, propinquity takes on a new meaning. Obviously, there are important differences between the situation
of someone who is regularly within shooting range of her or his stalker and someone who is being stalked from two thousand miles away" .
However, these instances can be scrutinised as disgusting and threatening, nonetheless it can differentiate with conventional stalking as it will remain in
virtual world. Though mental and emotional suffering and agony has been recognised in most criminal sanction but it is not regarded as intimidating
as physical threat or suffering. Therefore, the connection between domestic violence, femicide and stalking have been established in real life through
pragmatic research (Burgess et al. 1997 ; Kurt 1995 ; McFarlane et al. 1999 ) while cyber–stalking vestiges at the level of inducing emotional and
mental suffering, fear, and anxiety. However, it cannot be said that virtual and the real worlds are somehow innately or fundamentally detached.

The Pros And Cons Of Enforcement Harassment
1.A. "The Supreme Court, in Faragher and Ellerth, reasoned that vicarious liability for supervisor harassment is appropriate because supervisors are
aided in such misconduct by the authority that the employers delegated to them.20 Therefore, that authority must be of a sufficient magnitude so as to
assist the harasser explicitly or implicitly in carrying out the harassment" ("Enforcement Guidance," para. 10).
B. "In some circumstances, an employer may be subject to vicarious liability for harassment by a supervisor who does not have actual authority over
the employee. Such a result is appropriate if the employee reasonably believed that the harasser had such power" ("Enforcement Guidance," para. 18).
C. "If an employer cannot prove that it discharged its duty of reasonable care and that the employee unreasonably failed to avoid the harm, the
employer will be liable. For example, if unlawful harassment by a supervisor occurred and the employer failed to exercise reasonable care to prevent
it, the employer will be liable even if the employee unreasonably failed to complain to management or even if the employer took prompt and
appropriate corrective action when it gained notice" ("Enforcement Guidance," para. 33).

computer systems and the data processed by them" (Gercke, 2012). Also it has been defined in a broader sense as "illegal behavior committed by

Workplace bullying/ non– sexual harassment needs to be addressed in the same manner that sexual harassment would be dealt with. Sexual
harassment needs to be reported to the human resources office, and if the issue is not properly handled or it's dismissed, a harassment claim needs
to be filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Work place policies regarding sexual harassment is the main issue
discussed in this article. Sexual harassment has continued to be a challenge within the workplace. According to a recent review of sexual
harassment related resolutions, employers have paid over $732,976.00 in sexual harassment fines (Hobson, Szostek, & Fitzgerald, 2015). The
EEOC has issued written guidelines for appropriate strategies employers should use to handle workplace sexual harassment and specific ways to
address it. It is the employer's duty to proactively work to protect all employees from any type of sexual harassment by following sexual harassment
policies and procedures that are put in place. Failure to implement and follow the policy and procedure in the workplace can and most likely will lead
to liability should an EEOC investigation or lawsuit occur. The employer needs to disperse copies of the policies and procedures and post them in
central locations throughout the organization and address sexual harassment in the employee handbooks. The policy and procedures need to clear

Sexual Harassment Assignment
Sexual harassment in organisations is a critical issue as it has many negative implications for employees and organisations across multiple domains.
Empirical research suggests that sexual harassment has a wide range of impacts on productivity, organisation's competitiveness, job satisfaction, high
absenteeism and staff turnover (Birinxhikaj & Guggisber, 2017; Willness, Steel & Lee, 2007). This essay provides an insight to sexualharassment in
organisations, especially for women. It will also explain the causes and effects of sexual harassment. Furthermore, it explores the benefits and risk of
logical interventions to reduce sexual harassment and conclude with one preferred intervention.
The Australian Human Right Commission (AHRC) defines sexual harassment as "any unwanted or unwelcomed sexual behaviour, which makes a
person feel offended, humiliated or intimidated." (AHRC,2008 cited by Birinxhikaj & Guggisber, 2017). Despite, anti–discrimination laws in Australia
explicitly prohibiting sexual harassment there is a limited understanding of this matter. A practical example of sexual harassment is evident in Uber's
recent controversy which has drawn a lot of public attention (Kosoff, 2017). Uber's reputation is currently at stake as they are being investigated for

In "A Question of Character," Joe Ryan is accused of being the harasser, in that he has been seen and photographed with several young women that
appear to be friends only. Yet the question of whether or not he is cheating on is wife with these women has been addressed because he flirts with all
the young women. He states, "I may flirt, but I'm a married man," which according to him, are only rumors and claims that these women are only
friends. Yet, when Kimmy Crogan who started in the mailroom quickly moved up to factory supervisor without manufacturing experience, people
began to question the relationship and Ryan's flirtageous behavior. This led to people asking questions and doubting the character of their leader, as in
the Monica Lewinsky scandal with President Clinton (Wetlaufer, p. 30).

Non–sexual harassment includes other actions regarding age, gender, religion, sexual preference and race. Behavior associated with making racist or
negative comments can be construed as non– sexual workplace harassment. Instances of workplace harassment include discrimination such as: using
racist phrases or slang, engaging in offensive gestures, talking negatively about other's skin color or ethnic traits, sharing improper images that are
offensive in nature, parading racist posters or drawings around the office that are offensive to certain ethnic groups, and wearing derogatory clothing

The Pros And Cons Of Sexual Harassment In America
In our patriarchal society, women are seen as inferior to men in everyday life. Since the very start of this country, women have been looked down
upon, and stereotyped as housewives, sluts, or as emotionally irrational. It wasn't until 1920 that women gained the right to vote, they still get paid 77
cents to every $1 a man makes (Macionis), and there hasn't ever been a female president in the United States. These types of obstacles contribute to the
power that men have in our country and around the world, which leads to abuses of it. Sexual harassment, "comments, gestures, or physical contacts of
a sexual nature that are deliberate, repeated, and unwelcome" (Macionis), is a by–product of abuse of power, sexism, and even pornography, and it's not
going to keep going unheard.
Sexual harassment has been in the news lately for its rampant spread within the last year. Accusations against Hollywood elites is one of the
reasons that helped to bring mass media coverage to the issue. But, it's not new. Back when the United States was founded, black women were
consistently abused and even sold as breeders to slave owners. Law stated that rape was against white women, but not black (Morris). Sexual
harassment of many types started as a legal crime against black women, and while it is illegal today, it still occurs as if it isn't. Women of all
ethnicities are plagued as victims, but often times it is women of color as it ties in with the issue of race. The issue with sexual harassment

Sexual Harassment And The Workplace
Essay #3 Sexual harassment in the workplace has always been an issue, even before women were introduced into the working environment in the
twentieth century. In recent years this issue may have become more publicized than before and not as overlooked as it used to be, but it unfortunately
affects people all across the nation, both men and women alike. From that fast food chain where your kid is working at, to that fortune 500 company
you've never heard of, it is happening. Over the last several decades most people think that the conflict concerning sexual harassment has dissolved but
in reality not much has changed. Today most people argue that sexual harassment isn't as bad as it used to be, back before woman had many rights.
Those who oppose the movement against sexual harassment believe that most cases, if not all, are due to today's society being overly sensitive and
politically correct. Others argue that isn't an issue about being overly sensitivity, but instead is a result of the failure to educated workers about the
definition of sexual harassment and their options of recourse.
Many people do not even know the legal definition of sexual harassment and may not realize they are committing a crime. According to the United
States Equal Employment Opportunity commission, The Title VII of Civil Rights Act of 1964 describes sexual harassment as any "unwelcome sexual
advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature" (EEOC).

Stalking vs. Harassment
What's the difference?
What is the difference between Stalking and Harassment? Before finding the difference between the two terms, we need to evaluate their meanings.
Though both terms seem to give similar meanings, they have their individual meanings. The term Harassment incases various offensive behaviors of an
individual or a group of people towards another person or a group of people. Harassment can be either verbal or physical or could be both. The term
Stalking also suggests of being a nuisance towards somebody and in this case also there can be harassing or threatening. In both, we see that the
receiver is affected badly and most of the times harassment and stalking are illegal. Let us analyze them in more detail.
Harassing explains a situation where a victim is affected mentally or physically due to an unwanted disturbance or behavior. This offensive behavior
can be repetitive and sometimes it persists for a long time. It is said that harassing is intentional and the doer may get pleasure or feels happy after the
harassment. Harassing brings discomfort to the victim. Also, in some cases, the harassments are not reported due to social and cultural issues. Mostly,
the sexual harassment, that is having sex forcefully without having the consent of one party are not reported or found out. Usually, this happens in
workplaces where the victim is unable to tell the truth

Sexual Harassment : How Does It Differ From Bullying?
1.What is sexual harassment? How does it differ from bullying?
Sexual harassment is an unwanted attention that is sexual in nature. It can be a one–time occurrence or a result of repeated behaviour. In addition,
harassment is viewed from the victim's perspective and what the perceiver or affected individual would feel in the exact same situation.
Workplace bullying on the other hand can be defined as an act or verbal behavior that is persistent and continuous, with intent to mentally hurt or isolate
a person in the workplace (Ontario Safety Association for Community & Healthcare, 2009). In most cases, bullying may involve negative physical
contact or a repeated pattern of behavior that is intended to intimidate, offend, degrade or humiliate a person or group of people (Canadian Centre for
Occupational Health and Safety, 2015).
Some examples of sexual harassment are:
Unwanted physical contact
Comments about the victim's body or clothing
Sexually suggestive comments
Demanding sexual favours for promotions or job security
Sexual jokes
Inappropriate images on phone or computers
Bullying differs from sexual harassment as it occurs repeatedly and is persistent. In contrast, sexual harassment can be the result of one incident.
Bullying is meant to intimidate the victim.
Also bullying usually occurs with the intent to mentally hurt or humiliate an individual normally resulting from a dislike. On the hand the "dislike"

Re:MEMO FORMAT
SUMMARY
Online abuse has become a serious issue within the past 2 years. Various media reports have targeted on cyberharassment, notably toward women. The
matter was mentioned at a congressional hearing in April and a United Nations panel in September. Politicians have called for better law enforcement
solutions whereas net platforms like Google, Facebook and Twitter have taken steps to curb abuse. The article discusses the impact of onlineharassment
and identifies some innovations that can affect the social issue which includes creating awareness as well as the solutions.
THE ISSUE
The web, that has so amplified the voices of women, minorities, and LGBT people, continues to be a free–fire zone for those that would shame,
silence, or abuse them. A 2014 study by the Pew Research Center found that twenty five percent of 18– to 24–year–old women have been the target of
online sexual harassment. Last year the problem erupted in the mainstream media with Gamergate. The online movement targeted a female game
developer, making accusations concerning her sexual life and publishing her address and phone number, prompting her to maneuver out of her home.
Defining harassment can be very difficult. As an example, take into account Twitter. At one hundred forty characters, there's plenty of context that you
just don't essentially have after you check out a tweet.

irrelevant to their jobs and some websites may have viruses that could affect the computer system. As they work in a college, teachers have access to
websites that students don't. However, if they are caught trying to gain access to that site they may suffer severe consequences from the head of the

$00,000.00 for a 49% stake in the company. He then finds out that your uncle has a 35% investment he may decide you have sold too much of your
stake in the company and back out. If however you did not disclose this to him and he finds out he may have legal options as to recovery of his

There are two types of negotiable instruments: drafts and notes. A draft is an order to pay money and a note is promise to pay money.
As back office receives payment from its customers the payment is a negotiable instrument, such as a check.
This guarantees payment of money at a specific time or on demand with the payer named on the document.
When a payment is processed by back office there needs to be a date, a payer and a specific amount in order to track customers invoice payments.

Cyber Bullying : Bullying And Bullying
Let's start off with drawing a fine line where harassment starts. Harassment is defined as, aggressive pressure or intimidation. Harassment starts
usually when your contentment towards someone ends. While sitting behind a computer screen, it is easy to express this and seem powerful or
intimidating.. Do you not know what you are doing to others though? Research studies show that, as of 2014, over half of young people report being
cyber bullied. Everyday teenagers experience a form of cyberbullying, which can be defined as, the use of electronic communication to bully a person,
typically by sending messages of an intimidating or threatening nature. Sounds a lot like harassment, does it not? All states across America should
enforce laws and policies that do not tolerate cyberbullying or any form of online harassment, for cyberbullying is harassment. It will promote a safer
internet environment for everyone.
If you are actively engaged on the internet, you have probably witnessed some form of online harassment as a constant thing. Over half of all
Americans have a profile on a social networking site. Social networking sites include Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, etc. Those are amongst the most
popular of social media and are a corral for cyberbullies. Online bullying is notably different than traditional bullying. Authors Barbara Reeckman and

Sexual Harassment And Sexual Assault
Experiences of sexual harassment and sexual assault are a common occurrence in the workplace, in public and, even in schools. Many of these events
are either brushed off, swept under the table or seen as white noise. Sexual harassment is defined as "unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual
favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that tends to create a hostile or offensive work environment." More and more statistics
regarding cases of sexual assault and harassment have made their way into the mainstream media. Many of these studies are perceived as alarming, but

UW–Madison was part of this study. The study found that 27.7% of female undergraduate students at UW–Madison reported experiencing sexual
assault, which included either sexual touching or penetration by force or incapacitation. Of those women whom reported sexual assault, 76.1 percent of
them said alcohol played a major factor (Knutson, 2015). This accompanies the study amongst high schools, as students who reported they binge drank
had higher rates of sexual harassment victimization (Clear et al., 2014). Surprisingly, in this study UW–Madison undergraduates reported a "greater
knowledge of about sexual assault and awareness of campus resources than the national average." The problem with this is that in this instance,
more education didn't help solve the problem. So the discussion that needs to be held regarding sexual harassment is how it can be combated and
what its causes are. Certainly there's an oversexualized tone of today's media which factors into the perception of the viewer's moral and ethics.
However, the media cannot be the only to blame. There is room for research to be conducted on education in the early stages of a student's career
and how their views of gender are effected. Societal norms will always play a pivotal role in what's acceptable and what is not. Gender equality will

Simply because the person searched up the situation and stopped it before it got much more complicated. Another way to be well informed on what sexual harassment is, would be by going to sexual harassment awareness classes that talk about this issue. If everyone would be willing to take these types of classes, perhaps sexual harassment would not be such a big problem. For a moment let's say that an enormous part of the population was going to sexual harassment awareness classes, then eventually all these people would tell other people what they learned, and those new people will tell other people, and so and so forth.

  • 5. Persuasive Essay On Cyber Gender Harassment Therefore, the more we wait for a solution, the more women get subjected to online abuse Providing a solution for cyber gender harassment is in many ways difficult not just within the African context but all over the world. This is because democratic countries as well as human rights believe in freedom. "First Amendment protects the right to speak anonymously. In McIntyre v. Ohio Elections Commission, the Supreme Court held that First Amendment protection extends to a writer's decision to speak anonymously" (Jameson 2008, pg. 239). To ban people from using the internet will impede their freedom of expression which is a right that we all should have (Hackett, 2016). Therefore in most democratic countries the law operates in protection of the first amendment as well as the anonymity of an individual. Anonymity is also one of the things that enhance free speech. This is because the individual's privacy is being protected from abuse against governments that hinder free speech. Human rights activists believe in the right to free speech however great freedom does come with a great price and in this case cyber harassment and abuse. Therefore tackling cyber gender harassment will have to maintain the rights of the victim as well as the perpetrator. At the same time, anonymity constitutes a lack of accountability. There is no sure way to know a perpetrators identity or and therefore it is hard to hold anyone responsible for the abuses they commit unless the abuse is reported. As a ...

Essay on Sexual Harassment Sexual Harassment Sexual Harassment can take many forms; including a request for sexual favors; unwelcome sexual advances towards others, verbal, physical, or foreseeable conduct of a sexual nature towards people. This illegal conduct could occur in houses, or public places, hotels, restaurants, and can most often occur in the workplace. Employers, especially in the service industries, should pay careful attention to complaints by employees about customer conduct.

When Lockard returned to wait on the customers, one of the customers grabbed her by the hair and put his mouth on her breast. Lockard immediately informed her manager of the incident and quit. At trial, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Lockard against both Pizza Hut and the franchisee. Pizza Hut filed post–trial motions claiming Lockard could not hold Pizza Hut liable for customer–created hostile work environment. The trial court agreed. The Tenth Circuit reversed the trial court and ruled that employers could be vicariously liable under Title VII for acts of harassment by customers. The court reasoned that the proper focus of a hostile work environment inquiry is whether the workplace is permeated with discriminatory intimidation, ridicule and insult. Thus, the court reasoned an employer who condones or tolerates the creation of such an environment should be held liable, regardless of whether a supervisor, co–employee, or a non–employee creates the environment. Accordingly, the court held that an employer may be liable for customer harassment if it fails to remedy or prevent a customer–created hostile work environment, of which it knew, or in the exercise of reasonable care, should have known.

Anyone could be a victim of these types of crimes; the crimes could target small amounts of money and up to millions of dollars and they also target information that could be useful to cause harm to an individual or to an organization. According to the American Life Project 's January 2009 report about adults and social networking websites, 75 percent of Internet users in the 18–24 age group have a profile on a social networking Web site. Computers give people the possibility to access the Internet and socialize with people around the world.

Cyber–stalking is a crime and is committed when a person uses the web to stalk another person and threatens the person to inflict harm of any kind. The person being stalked has to receive any type of unwanted messages or harassment from the stalker to be considered a crime.

Equal Employment Opportunity commission (EEOC), puts that sexual harassment includes the following; unwelcomed sexual advances, verbal conduct of a sexual nature and also request for sexual favors. It's vital for organizations to conduct training for the employees to educate them on sexual harassment.

Most company leaders in various health care facilities view sexual harassment training as important to only low–levelled staff members.

The Supreme Court (Harris v Forklift) concluded that a hostile or abusive work environment can be determined only by looking at all the circumstances. According to established guidance, some factors could be part of the "circumstances" in a case. They include frequency of discriminatory conduct; severity of the conduct; whether it is physically threatening or humiliating or merely offensive utterance; and whether it unreasonably interferes with an employee's work performance. Brittany often witnessed Robert staring at the bikini photo and he actually took the photo to scan and make his computer screensaver (frequency and severity). Although Robert's conduct was not necessarily physically threatening, it was humiliating and offensive. After voicing her displeasure, Robert informed Brittany's supervisor that she was not performing her duties in a timely manner. This upset Brittany therefore causing several missed workdays (work interference). These actions are clear violations of a hostile environment sexual harassment.

Sexual Harassment And The Civil Rights Act Of 1964 Essay Scott St. Clair Gina Olmo December 15, 2016 Background of Sexual Harassment Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination. Federal law as well as various state fair–employment laws prohibit employers with 15 or more employees from treating members of one sex or race differently from members of the opposite sex or another race in terms, conditions, or privileges of employment. The statutory and regulatory laws govern the entire employment process from pre–employment activities such as recruiting, through an employee 's career with the organization, including termination. The prohibition against sex discrimination imposes responsibility upon employers to afford their employees an environment free from sexual harassment and from the fear that it may occur. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) can file lawsuits on behalf of victims of sexual harassment. The legal process is long and cumbersome it can be years from the first complaint to the final verdict. Though, Title VII offers reinstatement to previous job, the individual may be harassed by co–workers making conditions even more uncomfortable than they were beforehand. However, the solutions proposed might seem comprehensive in plans to lessen sexual harassment in the workplace and punishment of harassers.

"The Supreme Court, in Faragher and Ellerth, reasoned that vicarious liability for supervisor harassment is appropriate because supervisors are aided in such misconduct by the authority that the employers delegated to them.20 Therefore, that authority must be of a sufficient magnitude so as to assist the harasser explicitly or implicitly in carrying out the harassment" ("Enforcement Guidance," para. 10). B. "In some circumstances, an employer may be subject to vicarious liability for harassment by a supervisor who does not have actual authority over the employee. Such a result is appropriate if the employee reasonably believed that the harasser had such power" ("Enforcement Guidance," para. 18). C. "If an employer cannot prove that it discharged its duty of reasonable care and that the employee unreasonably failed to avoid the harm, the employer will be liable. For example, if unlawful harassment by a supervisor occurred and the employer failed to exercise reasonable care to prevent it, the employer will be liable even if the employee unreasonably failed to complain to management or even if the employer took prompt and appropriate corrective action when it gained notice" ("Enforcement Guidance," para. 33). 2.The cases of Faragher v.

Since the very start of this country, women have been looked down upon, and stereotyped as housewives, sluts, or as emotionally irrational. It wasn't until 1920 that women gained the right to vote, they still get paid 77 cents to every $1 a man makes (Macionis), and there hasn't ever been a female president in the United States. These types of obstacles contribute to the power that men have in our country and around the world, which leads to abuses of it. Sexual harassment, "comments, gestures, or physical contacts of a sexual nature that are deliberate, repeated, and unwelcome" (Macionis), is a by–product of abuse of power, sexism, and even pornography, and it's not going to keep going unheard.

From that fast food chain where your kid is working at, to that fortune 500 company you've never heard of, it is happening. Over the last several decades most people think that the conflict concerning sexual harassment has dissolved but in reality not much has changed. Today most people argue that sexual harassment isn't as bad as it used to be, back before woman had many rights. Those who oppose the movement against sexual harassment believe that most cases, if not all, are due to today's society being overly sensitive and politically correct. Others argue that isn't an issue about being overly sensitivity, but instead is a result of the failure to educated workers about the definition of sexual harassment and their options of recourse. Many people do not even know the legal definition of sexual harassment and may not realize they are committing a crime.

What is the difference between Stalking and Harassment? Before finding the difference between the two terms, we need to evaluate their meanings. Though both terms seem to give similar meanings, they have their individual meanings. The term Harassment incases various offensive behaviors of an individual or a group of people towards another person or a group of people.

  • 37. Sexual Harassment : How Does It Differ From Bullying? 1.What is sexual harassment? How does it differ from bullying? Sexual harassment is an unwanted attention that is sexual in nature. It can be a one–time occurrence or a result of repeated behaviour. In addition, harassment is viewed from the victim's perspective and what the perceiver or affected individual would feel in the exact same situation. Workplace bullying on the other hand can be defined as an act or verbal behavior that is persistent and continuous, with intent to mentally hurt or isolate a person in the workplace (Ontario Safety Association for Community & Healthcare, 2009). In most cases, bullying may involve negative physical contact or a repeated pattern of behavior that is intended to intimidate, offend, degrade or humiliate a person or group of people (Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety, 2015). Some examples of sexual harassment are: Unwanted physical contact Comments about the victim's body or clothing Sexually suggestive comments Demanding sexual favours for promotions or job security Sexual jokes Inappropriate images on phone or computers Bullying differs from sexual harassment as it occurs repeatedly and is persistent. In contrast, sexual harassment can be the result of one incident. Bullying is meant to intimidate the victim. Also bullying usually occurs with the intent to mentally hurt or humiliate an individual normally resulting from a dislike.

Online Abuse : A Serious Issue Within The Past 2 Years To: Amanda Greeley From:Minaxi Singla Intern, Symantec Corporation Date: November 22, 2015 Re:MEMO FORMAT SUMMARY Online abuse has become a serious issue within the past 2 years. Various media reports have targeted on cyberharassment, notably toward women. The matter was mentioned at a congressional hearing in April and a United Nations panel in September. Politicians have called for better law enforcement solutions whereas net platforms like Google, Facebook and Twitter have taken steps to curb abuse. The article discusses the impact of onlineharassment and identifies some innovations that can affect the social issue which includes creating awareness as well as the solutions. THE ISSUE The web, that has so amplified the voices of women, minorities, and LGBT people, continues to be a free–fire zone for those that would shame, silence, or abuse them. A 2014 study by the Pew Research Center found that twenty five percent of 18– to 24–year–old women have been the target of online sexual harassment. Last year the problem erupted in the mainstream media with Gamergate. The online movement targeted a female game developer, making accusations concerning her sexual life and publishing her address and phone number, prompting her to maneuver out of her home. Defining harassment can be very difficult. As an example, take into account Twitter. At one hundred forty characters, there's plenty of context that you just don't essentially have after you check out a tweet. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

One of the policy the college may set is how they use the internet. If they break those rules they could face a severe consequence for not following the rules. The college must have a specific purpose of using the internet.

  • 40. Ethical Considerations, Pt. 2 Ethical considerations, pt. 2 The best way to do business is full disclosure. I do not feel it is in your best interest to keep information from potential investors. A smart investor should be aware that any new start up is likely to lose money offsetting profitability. This can happen as the company grows and builds its brand. Apple's first computer was just a motherboard and Steve Jobs had to convince a local merchant to sell the board and all the necessary items that a customer could build their own computer. The merchant and the customer knew what they were doing once the customer agreed to buy the components to create and build their computer, essentially the first commercially available Apple Computer.

He then finds out that your uncle has a 35% investment he may decide you have sold too much of your stake in the company and back out. If however you did not disclose this to him and he finds out he may have legal options as to recovery of his investment or taking the entire company from you as the majority owner. This would remove you and you would lose your app and your company. Negotiable instruments There are two types of negotiable instruments: drafts and notes. A draft is an order to pay money and a note is promise to pay money. As back office receives payment from its customers the payment is a negotiable instrument, such as a check.

  • 41. Cyber Bullying : Bullying And Bullying Let's start off with drawing a fine line where harassment starts. Harassment is defined as, aggressive pressure or intimidation. Harassment starts usually when your contentment towards someone ends. While sitting behind a computer screen, it is easy to express this and seem powerful or intimidating.. Do you not know what you are doing to others though? Research studies show that, as of 2014, over half of young people report being cyber bullied. Everyday teenagers experience a form of cyberbullying, which can be defined as, the use of electronic communication to bully a person, typically by sending messages of an intimidating or threatening nature.

  • 42. Sexual Harassment And Sexual Assault Experiences of sexual harassment and sexual assault are a common occurrence in the workplace, in public and, even in schools. Many of these events are either brushed off, swept under the table or seen as white noise. Sexual harassment is defined as "unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that tends to create a hostile or offensive work environment." More and more statistics regarding cases of sexual assault and harassment have made their way into the mainstream media. Many of these studies are perceived as alarming, but a question to propose is whether the reported cases of sexual harassment and assault have actually increased in recent years, or if the push for sexual ...

The study found that 27.7% of female undergraduate students at UW–Madison reported experiencing sexual assault, which included either sexual touching or penetration by force or incapacitation. Of those women whom reported sexual assault, 76.1 percent of them said alcohol played a major factor (Knutson, 2015). This accompanies the study amongst high schools, as students who reported they binge drank had higher rates of sexual harassment victimization (Clear et al., 2014). Surprisingly, in this study UW–Madison undergraduates reported a "greater knowledge of about sexual assault and awareness of campus resources than the national average." The problem with this is that in this instance, more education didn't help solve the problem. So the discussion that needs to be held regarding sexual harassment is how it can be combated and what its causes are. Certainly there's an oversexualized tone of today's media which factors into the perception of the viewer's moral and ethics. However, the media cannot be the only to blame. There is room for research to be conducted on education in the early stages of a student's career and how their views of gender are effected. Societal norms will always play a pivotal role in what's acceptable and what is not. Gender equality will always ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
