NANJING: The legislature of Jiangsu province has amended the law to clearly define sexual harassment and allow complainants to report such cases and sue alleged perpetrators.

The standing committee of the Jiangsu provincial people's congress on Thursday passed the revised Jiangsu Provincial Measures for Implementing 皇冠体育app's Law on Protection of Women's Rights, saying that the "sexual harassment of women in the form of spoken and written language, images, electronic information and bodily gestures is prohibited".

The measures allow those who claim to have been harassed to report such cases to their employers, authorities and the police, which must prevent or stop such behavior. Women can also sue those they contend harassed them.
