Abstract

The gap competence between the vocational colleges’ graduates and the needs of the industrial world is a crucial problem that must be minimized immediately. Dealing with the previous phenomenon, the government brings up a program called industrial internship. In line with the earlier policy, Politeknik Negeri Jember, as one of the vocational colleges, requires an industrial internship program. Various industrial places are offered to the students. One of them is in the hotel. However, during the program’s implementation, the problems related to workplace harassment are faced by the students, especially the female ones. This case leads to a problematic situation. The further implication, the goal to fill the gap competence will be far from the reach. To cope with the preceding dilemma, this qualitative paper aimed to describe the forms and effects of workplace harassment experienced by female students during the industrial internship in hotels. Sixty-seven female students and graduates were involved as participants. The questionnaire was used to collect the data. Based on the analyzed data, it can be summarized that: 1) there are two forms of workplace harassment on the female students, which are direct and indirect, and 2) there are three effects of workplace harassment on the female students, which are devouring lesser moral value, having lower work performance and the changing of employment status. By briefly describing the two results, it is expected that the workplace harassment experienced by female students during the implementation of industrial internships can drag the policymaker’s attention to be promptly lessened and solved.
