Violence against women and children affects everybody.

FACT SHEET

Perpetration of workplace technology-facilitated sexual harassment

This fact sheet explores what workplace technology-facilitated sexual harassment (WTFSH) is, who is perpetrating it, and what prevention and responses could look like.

The findings are drawn from a national perpetration survey, interviews with industry stakeholders and focus groups with young people (aged 18–39 years), as part of the ANROWS research project, “Technology-facilitated sexual harassment in the workplace: Perpetration, responses and prevention”, led by Asher Flynn with Anastasia Powell and Lisa Wheildon.

This resource is useful for anyone who wants to build an understanding of WTFSH among their employees, colleagues, broader organisation or sector. Organisational leaders, people and culture or human resources leads, as well as worker advocates and educators will also find it a useful tool to include in training. It is also a useful resource for those looking to prevent workplace sexual harassment under positive duty requirements.
