Book Description
The media often presents confusing images of sexual harassment, sexual assault, and other disturbing behaviors in the workplace. This confusion stymies attempts to correct inappropriate actions and leaves victims wondering how to pursue remedies. This book clearly explains the origins of sexual harassment laws, the rise of the #MeToo movement, and the difference between sexual harassment and sexual assault. The author offers her unique formula for distinguishing illegal harassment, which allows readers to calmly, logically, and correctly assess any situation. Readers will find specific examples of harassment and illustrative vignettes to help them visualize the concepts discussed. The author writes in a way you can understand, without legalize. Designed as a quick and easy read, the book offers a practical guide for both managers seeking solutions and employees pursuing protection or remedies.
