Sexual Harassment
Sexual Harassment is against Australian legislation and occurs where:
• a person subjects another person to an unsolicited act of physical intimacy; or
• makes an unsolicited demand or request (whether directly or by implication) for sexual favours
from the other person; or
• makes a remark with sexual connotations relating to the other person; or
• engages in any other unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature in relation to the other person;
And the person engaging in the conduct described above does so:
• With the intention of offending, humiliating, or intimidating the other person; or
• In circumstances where a reasonable person would have anticipated the possibility that the
other person would be offended, humiliated or intimidated by the conduct.
UniLodge @ Metro Adelaide is a friendly and supportive community, and it is expected that members
