Half of women sexually harassed at work

Sorry about that.

You're more an old woman than someone who could pass themselves off as that young. Hobble along.

Sorry about that.

It's OK. You look hot.

Ah. What I'd give for a bit of sexual harassment.

I'm certainly not saying a way a woman dresses should invite sexual harassment but I've just come in today and one lady in herlate 20's early 30's is here with knee high high heel boots, tight leggings and a white top that clearly shows her bra. IMO that's just not acceptable and most certainly turns heads and invites discussion amongst the guys. It's business casual here with open neck shirts and trousers, most wear a suit but take the jacket off. People in jeans are sometimes pulled to one side on the guys but rarely the ladies. Most male managers wouldn't dare point it out although they should.

As I say what you wear shouldn't be a reason to be harassed IMO but honestly, some of the ladies really need to think what is and isn't acceptable at work.

It's a bit too warm to wear knee high high heel boots.

Unfortunately male managers can't pull her a side as they will be done for sexual harassment so it's normally left to some older female, who then gets called an old cow.

It's best to have a good male to female ratio in the office as then there is sufficient peer pressure from both sexes to get people to dress appropriately.

If a workplace wants to stop this style of dressing, then it should have a well defined dress code and a policy for managing compliance. Probably a first step of a polite email reminder to the whole team to remember the dress code during the warmer months will do the trick.

It won't stop the bra under the white top fashion faux pas.

If you are too stupid to realise by that age that a white bra under a white top means the bra is extremely visible and you need to wear one that is skin coloured, then you have to be told straight.

Why isn't it acceptable though, I mean does it matter what she is wearing?
