Purpose Reliance on third-party judgments are common in efforts to identify and reduce workplace sexual harassment (SH). The purpose of this paper is to identify whether a workplace emphasis on inclusion as a cultural value is related to third-party labeling of and response to an exchange between a male manager and his female subordinate. Design/methodology/approach Participants (n=308) in an online survey experiment were randomly assigned to a workplace that emphasized inclusion or one that emphasized individual achievement as a cultural value. They read a vignette describing a workplace interaction between a male manager and his female subordinate and responded to a series of questions. Findings Organizational emphasis on inclusion is unrelated to third-party labeling of the interaction as SH, but positively associated with labeling the female’s intention to pursue harassment charges as an overreaction, and support for the female subordinate in a claim of SH against her manager. Culture is unassociated with willingness to defend the male manager in a SH claim. Practical implications Identifying how workplace culture shapes third-party reaction to harassment can help employers use third-party witnesses and cultural value statements as tools to reduce SH. Social implications A workplace’s cultural emphasis on inclusion is positively related to third-party support for SH victims implying the importance of workplace context in the fight against workplace SH. Originality/value The paper presents the first experimental analysis of how a workplace cultural emphasis on inclusion affects the third-party observers’ reactions to SH.

组织强调将包容性作为一种文化价值和第三方对性骚扰的回应

目的在确定和减少工作场所性骚扰(SH)的努力中,普遍依赖第三方的判断。本文的目的是确定工作场所强调包容性作为一种文化价值是否与第三方对男性管理者与其下属的交换的标签和回应有关。设计/方法/方法在线调查实验中的参与者(n = 308)被随机分配到一个强调包容性或强调个人成就作为文化价值的工作场所。他们读了一段描述男性经理与女下属之间工作场所互动的小插图,并回答了一系列问题。调查结果组织对包容性的重视与第三方将交互标记为SH无关,但与将女性意图骚扰指控的意图标记为过度反应有积极关联,并且在SH对其经理提出的索赔中支持女性下属。在SH主张中,文化与捍卫男经理的意愿无关。实际意义确定工作场所文化如何塑造第三方对骚扰的反应可以帮助雇主使用第三方证人和文化价值陈述作为减少SH的工具。社会影响工作场所对包容性的文化重视与第三方对SH受害者的支持成正比,这意味着在反对工作场所SH中,工作场所环境的重要性。原创性/价值本文提出了关于工作场所文化强调包容性如何影响第三方观察者对SH的反应的首次实验分析。
