Resumo: Sexual harassment in the workplace is a reality that affects many organizations. In many institutions, this type of violence occurs especially when there are power relations and hierarchy involved, and is directly linked to cultural issues, such as sexism and patriarchy, which end up collaborating to cases of violence, very in part interconnected to gender discrimination. This study aims to analyze the incidence of situations that constitute sexual harassment among employees of a Federal University in the interior of Rio Grande do Sul, based on the Model for Evaluating Sexual Experiences proposed by Fitzgerald et al. (1999). For this, a case study of quantitative and descriptive nature was carried out, whose target audience includes the institution's employees. Data collection was carried out using an online questionnaire, through the institution's own system, with the participation of 513 employees. The data analysis involved descriptive statistics, using the SPSS 20 software. As a result, it was noticed that most of the employees had never experienced the situations presented in the questionnaire. Despite this, there are cases of sexual harassment occurring against both female and male employees of the institution, but the statistics showed that women are the biggest victims of this form of violence.

En muchas instituciones, este tipo de violencia se da sobre todo cuando intervienen relaciones de poder y jerarquía, y está directamente vinculada a cuestiones culturales, como el machismo y el patriarcado, que acaban colaborando en casos de violencia, muy en parte ligada a la discriminación de género.  Este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar la incidencia de situaciones que constituyen acoso sexual entre empleados de una Universidad Federal del Interior de Rio Grande do Sul, con base en el Modelo de Evaluación de Experiencia Sexual propuesto por Fitzgerald et al. (1999). Para ello, se realizó un estudio de caso, de carácter cuantitativo y descriptivo, cuyo público objetivo son los empleados de la institución. La recolección de datos se realizó con la aplicación de un cuestionario online, a través del sistema propio de la institución, con la participación de 513 funcionarios. El análisis de datos involucró estadísticas descriptivas, basadas en el software SPSS 20. Como resultado, se notó que la mayoría de los servidores nunca experimentaron las situaciones presentadas en el cuestionario. A pesar de esto, existen casos de acoso sexual que ocurren tanto contra mujeres como contra hombres al servicio de la institución, pero las estadísticas han demostrado que son las mayores víctimas de esta forma de violência.O assédio sexual no ambiente de trabalho é uma realidade que atinge diversas organizações. Em muitas instituições, este tipo de violência ocorre especialmente quando há relações de poder e hierarquia envolvidas, e está diretamente ligada a questões culturais, como o machismo e o patriarcalismo, que acabam colaborando para casos de violência, muito em parte interligadas à discriminação de gênero. Este estudo tem por objetivo analisar a incidência de situações que configuram assédio sexual entre servidores de uma Universidade Federal do Interior do Rio Grande do Sul, a partir do Modelo de Avaliação de Experiências Sexuais proposto por Fitzgerald et al. (1999). Para isto, foi realizado um estudo de caso, de cunho quantitativo e caráter descritivo, cujo público-alvo compreende os servidores da instituição. A coleta de dados foi realizada com aplicação de questionário on-line, por meio do próprio sistema da Instituição, contando com a participação de 513 servidores. A análise de dados envolveu estatísticas descritivas, a partir do Sofware SPSS 20. Como resultados, percebeu-se que a maioria dos servidores nunca vivenciou as situações apresentadas no questionário. Apesar disso, há casos de assédio sexual ocorrendo tanto contra mulheres quanto contra homens servidores da instituição, mas as estatísticas evidenciaram que são elas as maiores vítimas dessa forma de violência.Research, Society and Development2021-04-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1456210.33448/rsd-v10i5.14562Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 5; e3810514562Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 5; e3810514562Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 5; e38105145622525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/14562/13105Copyright (c) 2021 Gisela Sartori Farencena; Sheila Kocourek; Vívian Flores Costahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFarencena, Gisela SartoriKocourek, SheilaCosta, Vívian Flores2021-05-17T18:20:49Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/14562Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:35:38.746864Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
