We constantly hear that sexual harassment is rife in many
Australian workplaces – the
police force for example, and the
legal profession too are just two professions that have hit
media headlines in recent weeks because of allegations of
harassment by high-profile men in positions of seniority.
No industry it seems, is immune, and not only are women the
victims of sexual harassment, many men are too. However, one of the
worst industries for sexual harassment is the hospitality industry.
Recently, a Sydney Bar Manager declared that enough is enough, when she made a
complaint to police for slapping her bottom.
At the time, the 41-year old man from South Sydney reportedly
turned around to the manager of a bar in Sutherland, 22 year old
Annabel Bassil and said: 'Oh, it's fine, I've got a
wife. I'm just having fun'.
