A Contribution To The Study Of Working Women's Sexual Harassment In Algeria, Including Its Causes And Prevention.

Authors : Amttout Kamel .

Abstract

This study aims to highlight the phenomenon of sexual harassment as a form of violence against workingwomen, in particular, as it has become part of Algerian society’s everyday discourse. As a result, the researcher must employ a descriptive approach to identify this phenomenon and attempt to comprehend and discuss it, as well as determine its significance and identify its causes and effects And the following findings have been reached: Sexual harassment against working women is not treated as a social problem associated with social construction or a value imbalance but rather as a reality and social behaviour occurring in the context of interactive relationships between individuals in their family or professional life, which may threaten the family and career stability of working women.
