Harmful Workplace Experiences and Gender

Harmful Workplace Experiences and Gender At work, women are more likely to experience: Negative Attitudes towards their Gender Gender-based Discrimination General Workplace Harassment (Bullying) Sexual Harassment Sexual Assault Other general stressors such as Inter-role conflict. (Cortina, Magley, Williams, & Langhout, 2001; Eagly, & Karau, 2002; Elliot, Mok, & Briere, 2004; Schmitt, Branscombe, Kobrynowica, & Owen, 2002; Rospenda, Richman, & Shannon, 2009)

Harmful Workplace Experiences: Definition Interpersonal abuse against employees Happens in the workplace Might harm or injure them Contribute to a hostile work environment. Harmful Workplace Experiences might be… Momentary or ongoing Psychological, physical or both Generalised or based on attributes (gender, race) Individual experiences or Organisational actions. (Bowling & Beehr, 2006; Rospenda et al., 2009)

Harmful Workplace Experiences: An Example Taken from comments section of “Cleaning Nail Clippings, Cutting the Cake: Your 'Soft Sexism' Stories” http://jezebel.com/cleaning-nail-clippings-cutting-the-cake-your-soft-se-1696010639 How would you feel and what would you do if you were in her situation? What kind of beliefs and attitudes underpin the actions of her boss and colleagues? What are the short and long term consequences of being in her situation?

Moderation Analysis: Work context Impact on the Sexual Harassment - Mental Health Association

Harmful Workplace Experiences: Impact The distinction between high and low severity of the HWE is not supported by their association with health and work attitudes. Sexist Org Climate and Sexist Discrimination have stronger links with General Work Attitudes than other HWE. Sexual harassment has a stronger impact in MDE. HWE are as harmful as other work and family stressors in their impact on work attitudes and health. Associations of the HWE with work attitudes were the strongest for Satisfaction with Supervision.

Harmful Workplace Experiences: What to do in research? Longitudinal research Better reporting of relevant variables that could moderate these effects (e.g., managerial status of sample). Studies of Power differential between target and perpetrators Other dimensions of gender harassment (e.g., challenging women’s capacity to manage work-family issues) Relationship between work-family conflict constructs and HWB constructs.

Harmful Workplace Experiences: What to do in practice? Evaluation of “low level” sexism, harassment & discrimination. Analysis and change of current policy & practices to manage harassment & discrimination. Promotion of civil work environments. Supervisors of each unit/team/department as drivers of strategies.
