Transgressive behavior is behavior where someone causes physical, mental or emotional harm to someone else. This includes various forms of unwanted behavior, such as sexual harassment, harassment, discrimination, and aggression. This type of behavior can occur anywhere, including in the workplace. The experience of transgressive behavior is often subjective, because what one person experiences as transgressive may be seen as normal by another. Nevertheless, there is a generally accepted social standards framework about which behavior is considered transgressive.
