Mitzy · Answer 1

The correct answer is letter B

Sexual harassment can be defined as any conduct of an unwanted sexual nature which, although repelled by the recipient, is continually reiterated, restricting sexual freedom.

There are two kinds of sexual harassment given by specialized doctrine: sexual harassment by blackmail or quid pro quo, and sexual harassment by intimidation or the environment.

Quid pro quo or blackmail sexual harassment is characterized when the victim's superior constrains him with the intention of obtaining sexual favors under penalty of suffering some punishment or loss of benefit at work (dismissal, loss of trust function, etc.).

Davon · Answer 2

c. a promise of a workplace benefit the behavior is repeated and severe

Explanation:

Quid pro quo sexual harrassment involves a hostile work environment in which the person that is being harrassed does the sexual activity in exchange of a raise, a promotion or some kind of job favour.

However, this act can only happen one time and still be considered quid pro quo sexual harrassment.

This is why options a and b are correct.
