WELCOME TO SAFE SPACES & WORKPLACES

A recent survey of Hawai‘i adults, commissioned by Safe Spaces & Workplaces,
showed half (49%) of respondents—both female and male—have experienced workplace
sexual harassment while working in Hawai‘i.


SEXUAL HARASSMENT IN HAWAI‘I

For many in our islands, hearing "sexual harassment" is a painful reminder of
humiliation—often endured in silence because they don’t want to make waves.

People may be seen as being too sensitive because they can't take a joke. Still,
others may see sexual harassment as a strictly legal issue likely to result in
costly litigation.


Whatever your feelings and thoughts may be, you’ve come to the right place. Here
you can share your stories and questions about workplace sexual harassment. This
is a place of learning.

She kept silent about the situation and instead called in sick for a week. Only
when her supervisor called to check on her did her story slowly emerge.

(Harassment is) less about sex and more about power, while the most important
aspect is if women are treated equally.
