These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different.

Area of Science:

  • Military Health
  • Occupational Psychology
  • Gender Studies

Background:

  • Sexual harassment (SH) negatively affects employee health, well-being, and productivity.
  • The Belgian Armed Forces lacked data on SH prevalence and impact.
  • This study aimed to quantify SH within the Belgian Defence forces.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the prevalence of sexual harassment (SH) in the Belgian Armed Forces.
  • To investigate the impact of SH on mental well-being and professional performance.
  • To identify barriers to reporting SH among female military personnel.

Main Methods:

  • Quantitative analysis of SH prevalence and mental well-being in 399 female soldiers.
  • Qualitative analysis of barriers to reporting and impact of SH in a subsample of 8 female soldiers.
  • Investigation of demographic correlations with SH and well-being.

Main Results:

  • High prevalence of non-physical SH (64.4% career, 36.1% past year) and physical SH (43.4% career, 16.1% past year).
  • Rape prevalence reported at 9% career and 1.4% past year.
  • One in three female soldiers experienced reduced mental well-being, significantly linked to SH; reporting barriers include misunderstanding and insecurity.

Conclusions:

  • Significant prevalence of SH impacts female military personnel's performance and mental health.
  • Organizational changes are needed to encourage reporting of SH incidents.
  • Addressing SH is crucial for improving the well-being and effectiveness of female soldiers.
