In the United Kingdom, according to the Trades Union Congress (TUC), 3 out of 5 women experience or have experienced harassment or verbal abuse at work. Two out of three young women have experienced sexual or emotional harassment at work in the UK, study finds.
The TUC also points out that while the attackers are most often colleagues or superiors, in a third of cases it is a third party: a client or a patient, for example. If the confederation publishes these figures this Friday, May 12, it is to demand the vote of a law, currently being examined in Parliament.
