What is Workplace Sexual Harassment?

Sexual harassment violates both federal and California state laws. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and California’s FEHA both provide protections against any for of sexual discrimination including sexual harassment. Sexual harassment refers to unwanted sexual advances, or physical, verbal, or visual conduct of a sexual nature that create a hostile, offensive, or intimidating work environment.

When the such harassment is based on an employee’s sex or sexual orientation, the victim may have a valid claim for workplace sexual harassment. The offensive conduct does not have to be motivated by sexual desire for it to be legally actionable, it is enough that the offensive conduct is based on the victim’s actual or perceived sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions. It does not matter to a claim if the harasser is of the same gender as the victim.

What You Can Do if You are a Victim of Workplace Sexual Harassment

If you are experiencing sexual harassment in the workplace, you do not have to let it continue. You have rights. The first step is to take action as soon as possible. If your employer has a sexual harassment policy, you should make a report of your harassment following the policy’s procedures. As much as possible document every incident of harassment by noting dates, times, actions, and the people involved in the harassment.

If after reporting your harassment according to your employer’s policy, the conduct continues, and your employer fails to take reasonable steps to address the situation, then it is time to speak with an employment law attorney in Anaheim.
