Gender Inequality and Harassment at Workplace

Author(s) Dr. Praveen Kumar S., Dr. Nirupama M., Kavitha J.N.

Abstract The myth of workplace harassment and gender inequality is widely accepted. Since ancient times, it has also been common practice for people, particularly women, to be treated differently from males even when they both perform the same task. Women have experienced prejudice in a variety of contexts, and the workplace is only one of them. The inequality may manifest as a lower-paying position due to sex, frequent unfair treatment, being passed over for promotion, and physical and mental harassment of employees, particularly women. Insulting them, calling them names or using insults that are offensive, sexually harassing them, etc. Even if the world has changed, there are still many little traditions and customs that remain unchanged. This essay discusses discrimination and harassment in both rural and urban populations in general. Through a questionnaire, this publication also includes reader opinions and viewpoints. Understanding the history and present of gender discrimination and harassment in the workplace is the key goal. The world has struggled with these problems over time and is currently working to find solutions. In this nation, it is forbidden to discriminate against women. It is forbidden to discriminate against someone on the grounds of their race, colour, religion, national origin, or sex, according to Title Vll of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Employees who file a claim of workplace discrimination are likewise protected by this law. Laws like the Equal Pay Act of 1963 forbid paying women less than their male peers in the workplace. This law also safeguards against sexual harassment, encourages gender equality at work, and guarantees a healthy working environment. Urban areas are more developed than rural ones. Therefore, an effort is made to explain the prevalence of gender discrimination and harassment at work as well as the laws and legal requirements that apply to such behavior. This essay contains an introduction to the idea, justifications, and instances of workplace discrimination and harassment. Although it is unknown where these customs came from, estimates are still made to provide a general understanding of their history. This essay also includes the author's own investigation into the topic of gender discrimination among workers, which was conducted using questionnaires in the rural Karnataka communities of Belthangady, Laila, and Mangaluru. The author's opinions, recommendations, and conclusion are included in this document.
