Women may suffer from mental and physical harassment at workplaces, apart from the common
job stress. Sexual harassment in workplace has been a major source of worry for women, since
long. Women may suffer from tremendous stress such as ‘hostile work environment harassment’,
which is defined in legal terms as ‘offensive or intimidating behavior in the workplace’. This can
consist of unwelcome verbal or physical conduct. These can be a constant source of tension for
women in job sectors. Also, subtle discriminations at workplaces, family pressure and societal demands add to these stress factors.
