All ethical guidelines for health care practitioners remind them
to be aware that, even though sexually suggestive behavior may not
have crossed the line legally, any form of sexual harassment or
exploitation between medial supervisors and trainees, employers and
employees, coworkers, or medical practitioners and patients is
unethical.
1. You are a surgical technologist in a large hospital.
Whenever you work with a certain surgeon, she tells off-color jokes
to you and your coworkers and makes suggestive comments to workers
of the opposite sex. One coworker tells you that he might
quit his job because he is married, and the surgeon's behavior
makes him so uncomfortable that he dreads coming to work. Is
the surgeon's behavior illegal or simply in bad taste?
Explain your answer.
2. Do you or your coworkers in the previous situation have
grounds for a sexual harassment complaint? Explain your
answer.
3. If you have determined that you do have a complaint,
how would you proceed?
