In Switzerland, nearly a third of employees still experience sexual harassment at work, despite prevention efforts.
Sexual harassment in the workplace remains very widespread in Switzerland, despite the prevention measures put in place. Nearly a third of employees have already faced this problem.
The difference is, however, marked between the genders, with 44% of women saying they have already suffered sexual harassment during their professional life, compared to 17% of men, notes a study on Tuesday by the Federal Office for Equality between Women and Men ( BFEG) and the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (Seco).
During the twelve months preceding the survey, young people were more often the victims of incidents and felt more often sexually harassed than older people. The people most affected are those who work in close contact with customers, for example in the banking, hotel and catering, or health sectors. (jah/ats)
