Unwelcome Behavior in the Workplace
Unwelcome behavior consists of any conduct that you never initiated and is personally offensive to you. Co-workers, superiors, employers, or even subordinates can be perpetrators of unwelcome behavior or harassment.

Requests for Sexual Favors and Dates
A harasser can also ask a co-worker repeatedly to go on a date or give sexual favors. Despite the co-worker refusing these offers, the harasser may still coerce them and at times the harasser uses it as a joke. However, this is unwelcome behavior and it counts as harassment because the person is not respecting your decision; instead, he or she is making you feel uncomfortable.
