Questionnaires were administered by hand to the chosen sample by the researcher to elicit data from the respondents for this study. Multiple linear regression was used to test hypotheses using 0.05% significance level while frequencies, cumulative frequencies, and percentages were used to analyze the demographic data of the respondent. The findings from the study showed that a single variable of gender discrimination may not be significant to influence employment decision in banking sector but when used together they can jointly influence the employment decision in banking sector. The R square which shows the variation gives 0.3456 and adjusted R square of 0.54678. The R square which shows the variation gives 0.3456 and adjusted R square of 0.54678. Based on the findings, the study concluded that Women are Prone to sexual harassment in bank and this should be eliminated for effective attainment of organizational objectives.
