Abstract

Sexual harassment is a form of gender- based violence as well as a complex social issue that every society faces today. The United Nations and other
international and regional organizations have recognized sexual harassment as a form of discrimination and violence against women. By adopting
international documents and delegating principles, they provided an important starting point in the drafting of legislation that, at the national level, prohibits
sexual harassment.
This paper aims to analyze international legal standards on sexual harassment, as well as through a comparative analysis of legal practices, to point out the fact that although the domestic legal framework, in general, is in line with international standards, inconsistencies can still be determined in several areas, but also to point out certain good examples of incrimination of this
phenomenon.
