A South Korean woman who suffered repeated sexual harassment¹ at work will be awarded compensation, the state workers' welfare agency said in a landmark² ruling which acknowledged her suffering amounted to a work-related injury.

韩国职工补偿和福利服务机构近日决定，将赔偿一名在工作期间频遭性骚扰的韩国女职员，这个标志性的裁决认定她的遭遇相当于受“工伤”。

Saturday's judgment³ marked the first time that suffering caused by sexual harassment（骚扰，烦恼） 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.

According to the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service, the woman, whose name was withheld⁴（保留） for reasons of privacy, had suffered from unwelcome sexual advances from two men at her company since 2009.

The woman, who worked at an autoparts maker⁵ in the southwestern city of Asan for the past 14 years, was repeatedly groped, and also received lewd⁶（淫荡的） text messages.

A medical document said she was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder⁷, experiencing intrusive⁸（打扰的） recollections of the harassment, showed exaggerated startle response and suffered from a sleep disorder.

The National Human Rights Commission earlier recommended that the two male officials should pay a total of nine million won (US$7,725) in compensation.

The victim will be paid for her medical expenses and receive other financial compensation, the welfare agency said.
