===Talk to your employer===
====Talk to your employer====
If the harassment takes place at work, '''talk to your supervisor or human resources person'''. Find out your employer’s policy on human rights complaints. If you belong to a union, talk to the union steward. You have a right under the collective agreement between the union and employer to complain to the union about sexual harassment by the employer, a supervisor, a co-worker, or a customer.
