My GF is getting sexually harassed at work.?
My girl friend is being sexually harassed at work by her coworker he is always staring at her and making comments about her body and the other when she tried to walk away he grabbed her arm as she tried to walk away. She has told her management and they have done nothing what can she do? and I know you guys might think your a man go beat him up, i cant i don't live near her and me being in the Army I would get in a lot of trouble, but if this keeps up i will
Well she doesnt wear "tight clothing" shes a nurse so she wears scrubs, and she just had a child so her body isnt even that nice right now.
also she has asked him to stop like an adult and he doesn't

If she can document that she has formally complained and nothing has been done, she can contact her state's human rights commission who oversees violations. They will investigate the violations and make a ruling that can be used in court if necessary. The company managers are idiots if they allow this to continue because the liability is immense.

nothing you can do this has nothing to do with you
one thing your girlfriend can do and i know you dont want to hear this but anyway is stop wearing tight low cut clothes. men see women who are dressed like that as easy targets doesnt make it right but they still do
also she could contact the company hr department and file a claim
it takes two to cause harassment
i was a victim and realized i provoked the problem and allowed it by not stopping in the first place
gl
i would avoid legal avenues it could cost her the job
most people dont want bad publicity
she could also talk to the guy directly and as an adult. no yelling cursing or anything else
her actions could be leading him on to believe shes ok with him doing it

Document, report, demand action.Tell her to advise her employer that she will give them the opportunity to handle the problem or if they fail to act she will file charges with the police for the assault, a criminal offense. (grabbing her by the arm). Although the sexual harassment is a workplace offense and should be handled internally, sometimes it takes bringing the seriousness of a matter to everyoneone's attention. If they fail to act, she should follow through with charges.

If I have been you i may be fairly indignant. i'm unsure i might evaluate it sexual harassment yet whilst it happens back i might say some thing to him and then to somebody older than you. pointless touching is a contravention of your guy or woman rights. in simple terms bear in mind in case you do no longer like it happening make it clean. do no longer play alongside with it and then circulate to get him in hassle (no longer that i'm saying you probably did) interest from prevalent people is tempting yet no longer from a skeeze like that. It became into irrelevant and experience under pressure in case you desire. I in all probability might it if took place back.

'what can she do?'
She can contact the EEOC and file a complaint. Her definition of being sexually hararssed and the EEOC;s definition may vary, so she needs to talk to them first.
'and I know you guys might think your a man go beat him up, i cant i don't live near her and me being in the Army I would get in a lot of trouble, but if this keeps up i will'
that's very mature, bet it will help a lot, you go to jail, your career is over, her case is ruined......yeah, you should give that consideration.

She must document each incident and gather up as many witness statments as possible, before she goes to complain to her boss.

Tell your GF if it keeps happening, to leave her job. If you or no one else will beat up this guy, theres nothing else that can happen. If her boss won't listen to her or do anything about the situation then there may not be anything you can do.
