Although businesses and schools know sexual harassment exists, they appear unsure and unaware of how to deal with and prevent it. Sexual harassment is a reference to sex or anything sexual by any statement made or taken. There are many types of sexual harassment, but school and work, are the most common. On-the-job sexual harassment is not a recent problem among individuals or businesses. The number of cases filled in a life-span have climbed dramatically, while most cases go unreported. Although men are also victims of harassment, it is more common among women.
