Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

 


Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

The workplace is the most common backdrop for sexual harassment complaints and lawsuits. Co-workers spend the majority of their day together under high amounts of pressure and stress which can often result in confrontation. However, some employers and employees take advantage of various situations and take part in the unacceptable behavior of harassing their peers.

Have you or a loved one fallen victim of sexual harassment in the workplace? If so, contact one of our Sexual Harassment lawyers in your area today!

Common sexual harassment complaints:

  • Unwelcome jokes, gestures or comments of a sexual nature
  • Unwelcome displaying of sexually-suggestive objects or pictures
  • Unwelcome flirting
  • Repeated and unwanted sexual advances
  • Touching and other unwanted bodily contact, or impeding or blocking movements

The most common type of harassment is referred to as "quid pro quo", which translates from Latin to "this for that." An example of "quid pro quo" is if an employer propositions an employee to do something sexually against their will or face being fired. Termination resulting from "quid pro quo" can result in sexual harassment litigation against the offender and the offending company (if the company took no action to protect the employee).

If you believe that you have been the victim of sexual harassment you should contact a lawyer immediately. A qualified lawyer can assist you with your complaint or case. Their experience and knowledge can help you receive the compensation you deserve.
