Sexual harassment can include unwelcome verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that creates a hostile work environment or involves quid pro quo situations. It was made illegal by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and EEOC and recognized by the Supreme Court in 1986 as creating psychological impacts for victims like stress and PTSD. Companies have implemented policies against it with training and procedures to file complaints while investigating and preventing retaliation. The military has also responded by designating coordinators and all-call training to curb its negative effects on productivity, morale and equality. Current issues include lack of reporting and perceptions of what constitutes harassment or flirting versus harassment.

Sexual Harassment
It is unlawful to harass a person (an applicant or employee) because of that person’s sex. Harassment can include “sexual harassment” or unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature.
Harassment does not have to be of a sexual nature, however, and can include offensive remarks about a person’s sex. For example, it is illegal to harass a woman by making offensive comments about women in general.
Both victim and the harasser can be either a woman or a man, and the victim and harasser can be the same sex.
Although the law doesn’t prohibit simple teasing, offhand comments, or isolated incidents that are not very serious, harassment is illegal when it is so frequent or severe that it creates a hostile or offensive work environment or when it results in an adverse employment decision (such as the victim being fired or demoted).
The harasser can be the victim's supervisor, a supervisor in another area, a co-worker, or someone who is not an employee of the employer, such as a client or customer.
This presentation represents social sexual behavior at workplace.
