Surveys on workplace sexual harassment have been regularly conducted in South Korea. Many of the surveys use the term ‘sexual harassment’ directly in the title and/or the questions and the criteria for identifying victims vary. The unstandardized methods raise a question over sampling bias and may interfere with uncovering the state of sexual harassment. In order to address the issue, this study applied operational and subjective approaches to identify victims. To achieve the research purpose, the survey was conducted under the neutral title ‘Work Conditions Survey’. Data analyses revealed that the rate of subjective victims were 11.6% for females and 6.9% for males. In terms of operational victims, females were 34.4% and males 25.0%. The result indicates that both genders are likely to underestimate the extent of their victimization or are unaware of being sexually harassed. A number of implications can be made. Firstly, sexual harassment is an issue that concerns both men and women. South Korean legislation and policy over sexual harassment at work have been focusing on female victims but the gender-centrism should be avoided. Protection and support should be provided for both male and female workers. In addition, preventive education should also be enhanced to establish the right attitudes towards sexual harassment. Such actions would promote societal consensus, regardless of gender, to act together to overcome sexual harassment.
