Inhalt: The Spanish Equality Law defines sexual harassment as any form of verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature with the purpose or effect of violating the dignity of a person, in particular when creating an intimidating, degrading, or offensive environment. Environmental sexual harassment exists when working or academic life becomes intimidating, hostile or humiliating for the victim, without any appreciable direct link between the sexual requirement and a possible consequence related to working or academic matters such as a promotion, a failing grade, etc. Sexual blackmail (or quid pro quo) is considered the more severe form of sexual harassment. It exists when someone in a senior position, or whose decisions may affect the work or studies of someone else, uses the resistance or submission of the person being harassed to his sexual proposals in order to base determinations which have an effect on any aspect of the workplace or studies, for instance, salary conditions, contract renewal, etc.
