Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this study is to reflect upon the normative picture with regard to the term „sexual harassment” in the stipulations of the normative acts in the Republic of Moldova. Results: we believe that the legislator from the Republic of Moldova has strived to implement all the stipulations related to the issue in question, „sexual harassment”, sometimes putting too much effort into it. Nonetheless, the legal definitions of the term „sexual harassment”, included in various acts, cited in the present text, lead to a misinterpretation of the addressee. Conclusion: it is unanimously acknowledged that a judicial term used in a system of law must be known with its content in any legal stipulation. Therefore, it has been noticed that the „sexual harassment” in the context of the legislation of the Republic of Moldova is a crime, an offence and an operant notion in the civil legislation. This leads to difficulty in applicability and even uncertainty.
