Meanings
nounharassee (plural harassees)
plural harassees
- One who is harassed; a victim of harassment.
All the eyes focus on the harasser. However, the person affected, the harassee, is often left behind. The harassee is most often a second thought. Employers may say “don’t forget about the harassee”, or “we must check on the how the harassee is doing”, but that is insufficient.
