Almost three in ten Canadians are reporting they have been sexually harassed at their workplace according to an Angus Reid poll.
14% of those people said the harassment was more than innuendo and talk, and included sexual touching as well as more serious sexual contact.
Women were almost four times more likely to suffer sexual harassment at work as compared to men, according to the poll.
Angus Reid says the math shows about 1 million Canadian women are subject to some form of sexual harassment while at work.
