Sexual Harassment
One of the most common types of harassment in the workplace is sexual harassment. This is any type of harassment based on gender. It can take the form of lewd comments or unwanted advances. It can be sexually explicit jokes or pornographic materials in the workplace. It can also be more complex. Quid pro quo sexual harassment is when an employee is offered a raise, promotion or some other benefit in exchange for sexual favors. All of these forms of sexual harassment are illegal. If you have been the victim of any of them, you have the right to take action. Our attorneys can help.
Other Forms of Harassment at Work
Not all workplace harassment is sexual harassment. Harassment based on race, national origin, religion, sexual preference and other characteristics is a form of discrimination. Harassment may also be based on someone being a whistleblower. People who report an employee's or co-worker's illegal behavior — whether that behavior is a wage and hour issue, sexual harassment against another employee or illegal handling of a government contract —may be mistreated in an attempt to drive them out of the workplace. This harassment is a form of employer retaliation.
