Presley wanted to see more conversations around sexual harassment in the workplace - similar to recent discussions around domestic violence. "I believe that sexual harassment in the workplace will never go away but hopefully it can change and decrease for women and men," she said. One of New Zealand's most powerful businesswomen has revealed she was sexually harassed as a 20-year-old starting her career. The Human Rights Commission receives around 70 complaints of sexual harassment each year - most are from European women aged 18 to 30. "This will only be achieved through strong women standing up and being counted and through strong men helping and supporting women and pulling them up into the system."
