A South Korean woman who suffered repeated sexual harassment at work will be awarded compensation, the state workers’ welfare agency said in a landmark ruling which acknowledged her suffering amounted to a work-related injury.
一名在職期間屢遭性騷擾的南韓女職員將獲得賠償，南韓工人福利機構在一項指標性的裁決中說。該裁決認定她的遭遇相當於職業傷害。
Saturday’s judgment marked the first time that suffering caused by sexual harassment has been classed as a workplace injury, and many other victims are now likely to file similar appeals with the agency, the Yonhap news service reported.
週六的判決首次把因遭遇性騷擾引起的身心傷害納入職業傷害範疇。其他許多受害者如今可能會向該機構提出類似申訴，聯合通信社報導。
According to the Korea Workers’ Compensation and Welfare Service, the woman, whose name was withheld for reasons of privacy, had suffered from unwelcome sexual advances from two men at her company since 2009.
據「韓國職工補償暨福利服務局」指出，基於保護隱私考慮、沒有公開姓名的這名女子，自2009年以來一直遭受公司兩名男性令人厭惡的性冒犯。
The woman, who worked at an autoparts maker in the southwestern city of Asan for the past 14 years, was repeatedly groped, and also received lewd text messages.
這名女子過去14年任職於南韓西南部牙山市一家汽車零件廠，期間她一再被觸摸，並收到淫猥手機簡訊。
A medical document said she was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, experiencing intrusive recollections of the harassment, showed exaggerated startle response and suffered from a sleep disorder.
一份醫學診斷文件指出，她罹患創傷後壓力症候群，性騷擾的回憶侵入腦海，表現出過度的吃驚反應，並出現睡眠失調症狀。
