While watching the film 9 to 5, I noticed a lot of questionable behavior by both men and women throughout the movie. I recorded well over thirty cases of sexual harassment, misuse of the progressive disciplinary program, and inappropriate language used in the office. There were a lot of moments in the movie where one female employee was consistently sexually harassed by her male boss; he was guilty of giving her gifts, touching her inappropriately, and most of all quid pro quo sexual harassment. During the movie a woman was fired on the spot based on something his secretary heard in the bathroom while the woman and a coworker were talking.
“A commonly used four-step progressive disciplinary includes documented oral warning, written warning, suspension, and dismissal”
When other employees are speaking bad about other employees, blatantly taking credit for someone else’s work, threatening others, and not promoting someone because they are a woman can all cause psychological problems with employees.
“This is humiliating or abusive behavior that lowers a person's self-esteem or causes them torment. This can take the form of verbal comments, actions, or gestures”
