Addressing Digital Harassment of Women in Remote Working Conditions

Covid-19 has brought out the worst in us, with an increase in reported incidents of cyberbullying and harassment online. The cases have expanded from social media to a newly adopted “Remote-working” environment. Harassment while working remotely poses a much more significant threat to the well-being of the person and their family. The index for sexual misconduct may have decreased now, but a rising number in unemployment maybe its cause. It may also suggest that a sense of fear has gripped most women who are afraid to lose their job in the middle of a deadly pandemic.
