Sexual harassment is often only thought of as a problem for women — which can lead managers to ignore complaints from male employees.

The EEOC reports that harassment claims from men have steadily increased over the past few years, reaching an all-time high of 2,000 charges last year — now making up 16% of all harassment claims.

That’s almost double the number from 15 years ago.

Still, it’s a small percentage of the total claims, which can lead managers to look the other way or fail to take men’s complaints seriously. And that’s gotten a lot of companies burned in court.

The solution? Make a point to include examples of all forms of harassment in your training for managers.
