From the Paper:

"Sexual Harassment in the Workplace: Policy and Research Sexual Harassment in the workplace is defined as unwanted behaviour that demeans, humiliates, or embarrasses; unwanted sexual behaviour; and abuse of authority according to the Canadian Human Rights Commission's publication "Anti-Harassment Policies For The Workplace: An Employer's Guide. (2005)" This definition is a starting point for a complex workplace stressor. To illustrate this stressor, the published sexual harassment policies of four federally regulated Canadian organizations will be discussed. These policies will be compared to the "Anti Harassment Policies" as published by the Canadian Human Right Commission that govern federally regulated workplaces, to determine how closely they follow or diverge from the commission's stated national policies."
