The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission reports that there are approximately 15,000 new sexual harassment cases filed each year. What about the hundreds or thousands of cases that don’t get filed due to embarrassment, humiliation, loss of self-respect, fear of losing one’s job, retaliatory threats, or other concerns that keep women from filing complaints?

Many women are too fearful to file a complaint, and some don’t know the procedure. Human Resources organizations are oftentimes too short handed to provide the requisite training for management and for general employee populations to ensure that the laws are followed, so harassed employees are left no choice but to suffer in silence.
