Does a male colleague shouting angrily at a female constitute sexual harassment? No. Shouting in anger at a woman by a male colleague may not be covered under sexual harassment, unless the shouting is accompanied by behavior that is sexually explicit, unwelcome, or creates a hostile work environment. Sexual harassment is defined in the POSH Act of 2013 as unwelcome sexual conduct, which could be verbal, non-verbal, or physical.
