Military sexual trauma (MST) refers to experiences of sexual assault, or repeated threatening sexual harassment that occurred while a person was in the military.
 This term is specifically a term used and defined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the definition for MST comes from federal law (Title 38 U.S. Code 1720D) and is "psychological trauma, which in the judgment of a VA mental health professional, resulted from a physical assault of a sexual nature, battery of a sexual nature, or sexual harassment which occurred while the Veteran was serving on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty training".
 Sexual harassment is further defined as "repeated, unsolicited verbal or physical contact of a sexual nature which is threatening in character".
 The behavior may include physical force, threats of negative consequences, implied promotion, promises of favored treatment, or intoxication of either the perpetrator or the victim or both.
 Other events that may be categorized as MST may include unwanted sexual contact, threatening, offensive remarks, and unwelcome sexual advances.
 The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) provides medical and mental health services free of charge to enrolled veterans who report MST and has implemented universal screening for MST among all veterans receiving VA health care (Title 38 United States Code 1720D; Public Law 108-422).
Kerans v. Porter Paint Co. was a leading case in Ohio on employer liability for workplace sexual harassment.
 In an opinion by Alice Robie Resnick, the court held that victims of harassment could bring tort claims against their employers.
 Resnick held that the psychological and emotional damages suffered by victims of harassment were not injuries under Ohio's workers' compensation statute, and employers were vicariously liable for the sexual harassment of their employees when they knew or should have known about the harassment.
Hostile Advances: The Kerry Ellison Story is a 1996 television movie based on "Ellison v. Brady", a landmark sexual harassment case.
 This lawsuit set the precedent for the "reasonable woman" standard in sexual harassment law which allows for cases to be analyzed from the perspective of the complainant and not the defendant.

North Country is a 2005 American drama film directed by Niki Caro, starring Charlize Theron, Frances McDormand, Sean Bean, Richard Jenkins, Michelle Monaghan, Jeremy Renner, Woody Harrelson and Sissy Spacek.

Janet Merlo (born 1963 in Newfoundland, Canada) joined the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) in 1991 and was transferred to British Columbia.
 In 2007, she filed a lawsuit against the RCMP for what she described as almost daily harassment.
 In 2010, she took a medical discharge from the police service.
 In 2012, after speaking publicly about gender based harassment in the RCMP (Canada's National Police Force), Merlo became the representative plaintiff in a proposed class action lawsuit against the force and the Solicitor General of Canada.
 The group of current and retired female police officers who have requested to join the class action has now grown to almost 400.
 In June, 2015, Merlo's lawyers presented arguments to the court in BC asking for class action status, due to allegations of systemic sexual harassment and misconduct.
 Results of the hearing are not expected for several months.
Blakey v. Continental Airlines, 992 F.Supp.
 731 (D.N.J. 1998) and 164 N.J. 38 (2000), is a case concerning whether an employer must be held liable for harassment that can potentially occur on an internal internet bulletin board (which could be manifested as anything from a company forum to a mailing list).
 The plaintiff brought action under the federal district court for claiming a hostile work environment sexual harassment under Title VII of Civil Rights Act of 1964 and New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD).
 Concurrently, the plaintiff brought action under the New Jersey state court alleging that employer was liable for hostile work environment arising from allegedly defamatory statements.
 While the case began as a sexual harassment lawsuit, the unusual circumstances involving the piloting forum where much of the harassment took place forced the courts to explore important questions concerning liabilities for content posted in a decentralized, electronic manner as is frequently the case on the internet.
