AB  - Reports on a study which examined the incidence, antecedents and
consequences of social‐sexual behaviours at work. These include any
non‐work related behaviour having a sexual component, such as
harassment, flirting, posters and pin‐ups, and sexual jokes. Data were
collected from 267 Canadian managerial and professional women using
questionnaires completed anonymously. Women experiencing more harassing
and non‐harassing social‐sexual behaviours at work were less satisfied
and less committed to their organizations and reported poorer emotional
wellbeing. Few demographic characteristics were related to social‐sexual
behaviours experienced. Work environment characteristics, however, were
more strongly related to experienced social‐sexual behaviours at work.
Managerial and professional women reported experiencing harassing and
non‐harassing social‐sexual behaviours with the same frequency as
working women in general.
