UNITE SAYS IT IS PUTTING EMPLOYERS 'ON NOTICE' AFTER ITS SURVEY REVEALED ONE IN FOUR WOMEN SUFFER SEXUAL HARASSMENT AT WORK

'We will fight every step of the way to stamp out workplace harassment once and for all'

ONE in four women have suffered work-related sexual harassment, new research suggests.

A survey of 6,600 female members of Unite found that just over half had witnessed sexually offensive jokes, unwanted flirting or sexual remarks.

One in four respondents said they had been sexually assaulted at work, and a similar number reported being shown pornographic images by a manager or colleague.
