This is not a recent story, this happened to me way back in the 60's, I was only 19 years old and a very naive girl, my boss a man of around 50 asked me one evening if I would like to go to see a film with him and thinking he was joking I just laughed, three days later I was sacked.

I once had my breast grabbed quite violently by a drunken contractor at a Christmas Party for a large multi-national company. Several of my colleagues saw it happen and had to keep him away from me the rest of the night. The contractor was no longer working with us a few days later.

Just arrived from the UK & working in Macquarie St for a Dentist. Found myself forced to sit on his lap each day to eat morning tea, with his hand around my waist holding onto me a bit too tight. Felt very uncomfortable, knew it was not right but too scared to object in case he sacked me. I was 18.

The Executive Directors I worked for, oneday put upon my desk the new "outfit" they wanted me to wear to work. It was a leather catgirl type of outfit. They said they thought I would look good in it. Hello. I felt under-valued at the high profile American Bank I worked for.

Working at a local Council and was harrassed by my boss for 2 years and this led to sexual assault. I complained to HR and management but they believed him over me because he was a great friend and associate of our State labor party Ministers and premier. Police protected him too. Dont go to the ADB

I was sexually harrassed when I was 19. I was acutely shy and timid and I didn't know how to stand up for myself. What made it worse was that my boss told everyone that I was being slutty toward him! I was a virgin at the time. 5 years of depression ensued from the abuse I suffered.

I was drugged & raped by a colleague while on a business trip last year. When I went to HR for help, they started a campaign to scare me into leaving the company. They threatened me with lawsuits, delayed my work cover and tried to convince me to say I had made the whole thing up.
