Sexual harassment is more prevalent for women supervisors than for women employees. This pattern holds in the three countries we studied – the United States, Japan, and Sweden – where women supervisors are between 30 to 100 percent more likely to have been sexually harassed in the last twelve months. Among supervisors, the risk is larger in lower- and mid-level positions of leadership and when subordinates are mostly male. We also find that harassment of women supervisors happens despite their greater likelihood of taking action against the abuser, and that supervisors face more professional and social retaliation after their harassment experience. We conclude that sexual harassment is a workplace hazard that raises the costs for women to pursue leadership ambitions and, in turn, reinforces gender gaps in income, status, and voice.

女领导人的性骚扰

女主管比女雇员更普遍发生性骚扰。在我们研究的三个国家（美国，日本和瑞典），这种情况一直存在。在过去的12个月中，女主管受到性骚扰的可能性增加了30％至100％。在主管中，下层和中层领导职位以及下属大多为男性的风险更大。我们还发现，尽管女性主管可能会对虐待者采取行动，但仍会发生骚扰，并且在受到骚扰之后，主管会面临更多的职业和社会报复。我们得出的结论是，性骚扰是工作场所的危害，增加了女性追求领导野心的成本，进而加剧了收入，地位和声音上的性别差距。
