Abstract: The problem of sexual harassment is increasingly “coming out of the closet”. Companies are starting to realize that the problem is real; some managers are admitting that it could affect their staff, and more victims are starting to gather the courage to complain. And in terms of recent labor legislation, victims do have legal recourse. Everybody wants to work for making life more luxurious and financially secure. Men and women both are earning and doing well on their workplaces. Technologies changes are accepting. People are not afraid anymore from new changes in environment. Workplace is become very important part of life. Every organization is working on their human power and tries to make them more efficient in their work. Organizations provide good working condition, positive environment, supportive colleagues and giving good remuneration etc. These facilities are enough when workplace is full of good people. In this article I am trying to explain effects of stress, stress due to sexual harassment. Sexual harassment has been theorized as a stressor with consequences for the physical and mental health of its targets. Though social scientists have documented a negative association between sexual harassment and mental health, few longitudinal studies have investigated the association between sexual harassment and depressive symptoms. Today many companies are unprepared to deal with actual cases of sexual harassment and undertake adequate and fair investigation any allegations. They are also faced with challenge to answer.
