Office Sexual Harassment

Office sexual harassment is considered behavior which takes place at work, whether by an employer or co-worker. This behavior affects individuals, making them feel abused, offended or humiliated. Harassment may include unwanted physical attention or verbal attention. Quid pro quo is sexual harassment where one individual requests sexual favors in exchange for work-related benefits. This is typically something a person in a position of authority, such as a supervisor, does.

Fast Facts

  • Victims of sexual harassment may be entitled to monetary compensation for their pain and suffering, as well as loss of work if the behavior was bad enough to make the individual quit his or her job.
