| Abstract: | Data on 296 complaints lodged with the Canadian Human Rights Commission between 1978 & 1993 are drawn on to address types of sexual harassment behaviors experienced by women complainants & whether these experiences are characterized by isolated or multidimensional incidents. Results show that women complainants experience a range of behaviors, with quid pro quo harassment occurring in only 14% of the complaints. Complaints are also found to have a multidimensional nature & can be characterized as either containing poisoned environment harassment or quid pro quo sexual behaviors. |
