There is a proper way to respond and effectively deal with that. This is definately something that a affects a lot of womens and sometimes we don’t say anything or don’t do anything. That’s not the best response you should do something you have the power to stand up for yourself.
Address the person directly one on one. Avoiding it or ignoring the person should never be an option. If someone does something you don’t like you should definately something to that person and let them know you don’t like that behavior. You can tell all this to your supervisor or HR. Talk to someone who can make a difference.
Write it down. Be more specific about place, date, time, or witnesses. When you report it to some person, also write down what the person said. If you are not the only employee to experience harassment, ask other people at work to also write down. Keep the record at safe place.
Don’t ignore it. Don’t ignore the feeling that your are being bullied. Learn about what is bullying behaviour.
Get witnesses. Talk to your coworkers, who may have witnessed your harassment.
Talk to your friends and family. Tell them about the abuse. Talking with family can give you much needed support, and helps you to file complain against the action, if needed.You’ve tried everything, but the bullying still won’t let up? It’s probably time to report the abuse to someone outside of your work.
If you know someone who is being harassed, encourages him or her to take these steps and support them. Standing against harassment is everyone’s responsibility. Keep calm.
