             PART A: INTRODUCTION.
             Sexual harassment is one of the most common forms of violation of a person's body and dignity, yet it is the least exposed. Indeed, the past twenty years have witnessed an increasing awareness of the phenomenon of sexual harassment as a legitimate workplace issue. In Malaysia, the Ministry of Human Resources (MOHR), has defined sexual harassment as unwanted conduct of a sexual nature having the effect of verbal, non-verbal, visual, psychological or physical harassment: .
             that might, on reasonable grounds, be perceived by the recipient as placing a condition of a sexual nature on her/his employment; or that might, on reasonable grounds, be perceived by the recipient as an offence or humiliation, or a threat to her/his well-being, but has no direct link to her/his employment (Ministry of Human Resources, 1999). .
             Although most of the studies on sexual harassment have been conducted in the west, such behaviour has long been recognised by many sectors in Malaysian society as a problem.
