What Is Sexual Harassment?

While every case of sexual harassment is unique, nearly all fall into these two broad categories:

  • Creating a hostile work environment: Actions that create a hostile work environment can include a supervisor who makes sexually suggestive remarks, colleagues who hang sexually provocative pictures in their workstations, clients who make repeated unwanted advances, and anyone who engages in any unwanted touching, pinching, leering or other inappropriate activity. You can be a victim of sexual harassment at work even if you are not the target of the harassment, but have witnessed it.
  • Tying job actions to sexual favors: Hiring, firing, promoting or assigning employees to specific work duties cannot be tied to the granting of sexual favors. Were you suddenly reassigned to a less desirable job after refusing to go on a date with your boss? Did the person who interviewed you for a job imply that you’d get the position if you engaged in sexually inappropriate activities? You should talk to a lawyer.

How to Stop Sexual Harassment

Sexual discrimination can occur in any workplace, from the executive office to the factory floor and anywhere in between. We believe that taking legal action against perpetrators is the best way to stop sexual harassment. A successful case will benefit the individual victim and society as a whole.
