The workshop on “Sexual harassment at workplace” was organized by women cell at DSIMS on 11th October, 2017. It was conducted by Dr. Smitha Murthy and Dr. Aruna from Sanjeevini Hospital Foundation.
The workshop provided many insights regarding nature and type of sexual harassment, subtle difference between flirting and harassment. The students were given clear cut examples to understand instances which can be termed as sexual harassment be it workplace, college or home. They also busted the common myth that only women go through sexual harassment. As quoted by Dr. Aruna, “Sexual Harassment can be Man to woman, Woman to Man, Man to Man or Woman to Woman”.
Students were apprised of the instances of sexual harassment that goes unreported in colleges/ universities by the victim because of fear, peer pressure, family status and social stigma. The reason for the same is that victim in colleges/ universities do not know how to deal with the sexual harasser and ignore the situation thinking that this event won’t be repeated. In the words of Dr. Aruna, “this is the biggest mistake that a victim can ever do. If we as victims or as the witness to the harassment ignore it, we are encouraging the offender”.
The initiative was well appreciated by the students. The workshop ended with question and answer session and left students ponder over the issues related to women safety, willingness to change and how to make society worth living for all with dignity and respect.

The workshop on “Sexual harassment at workplace” was organized by women cell at DSIMS on 11th October, 2017. It was conducted by Dr. Smitha Murthy and Dr. Aruna from Sanjeevini Hospital Foundation.
The workshop provided many insights regarding nature and type of sexual harassment, subtle difference between flirting and harassment. The students were given clear cut examples to understand instances which can be termed as sexual harassment be it workplace, college or home. They also busted the common myth that only women go through sexual harassment. As quoted by Dr. Aruna, “Sexual Harassment can be Man to woman, Woman to Man, Man to Man or Woman to Woman”.
Students were apprised of the instances of sexual harassment that goes unreported in colleges/ universities by the victim because of fear, peer pressure, family status and social stigma. The reason for the same is that victim in colleges/ universities do not know how to deal with the sexual harasser and ignore the situation thinking that this event won’t be repeated. In the words of Dr. Aruna, “this is the biggest mistake that a victim can ever do. If we as victims or as the witness to the harassment ignore it, we are encouraging the offender”.
The initiative was well appreciated by the students. The workshop ended with question and answer session and left students ponder over the issues related to women safety, willingness to change and how to make society worth living for all with dignity and respect.
