Abstract

A 1994 survey of hospital HRMs has revealed that charges of sexual harassment within the health care industry are increasing at an alarming rate. Most charges are filed by women who claim they were victims of "hostile environments." Nurses levy the largest number of complaints, followed by clerical/secretarial personnel, technicians, custodial workers, food service personnel, and therapists. Most charges are filed against coworkers. Approximately 10 percent of all charges of sexual harassment in hospitals are brought against physicians.
