What Constitutes Sexual Harassment In Laguna Niguel Workplaces?
Sexual harassment is a form of sexual discrimination prohibited by California’s robust workplace protection laws and under Title VII of the Federal Civil Rights Act. Sexual harassment creates a hostile work environment and concerns of employer retaliation for reporting or “whistleblowing.” California’s workplace protection laws safeguard workers from all of these potential impacts of reporting workplace harassment.
Sadly, sexual harassment continues to be a persistent problem in California workplaces and elsewhere. Examples of behaviors that constitute workplace harassment include:
- Physical sexual harassment such as unwanted touching, cornering, or intentionally brushing up against an employee or coworker
- Verbal sexual harassment such as “catcalling” making complimentary remarks of a sexual nature, sexual jokes, lewd comments, lewd sounds, and sexually explicit language
- Requests or threats for sexual favors
- Asking personal questions about an employee or coworker’s sex life
- Displaying sexually explicit materials in the workspace
- Persisting in asking an employee or colleague out on dates after they’ve declined
These are the most common forms of workplace sexual harassment in Laguna Niguel and elsewhere, but sexual harassment takes many forms. An employment attorney from Sessions & Kimball is ready to evaluate your case with discretion and sensitivity.
