What Constitutes a Hostile Work Environment?

When conditions at work are so difficult that you dread going into work, it could be an indication that your workplace has become a hostile work environment. Not every difficult workplace justifies a hostile workplace claim, however. The law stipulates the conditions that must be present in order to successfully make a legal claim based on a hostile workplace.

Harassment that creates a hostile, offensive, oppressive, or intimidating work environment and deprives the victim of their right to work in a place free of discrimination, it could be the basis of a hostile work environment claim. The harassment must be such that it disrupts the victim’s ability to perform their duties as usual, or undermines their personal sense of well-being.

To prove a hostile work environment claim, the victim must show that they suffered intimidation that was severe or pervasive. This will be determined by an examination of all the circumstances involved in the case. Factors such as the frequency and severity of the unlawful conduct, as well as whether the conduct was physically threatening or humiliating will also be considered. Mere offensive utterances may not be enough to sustain a hostile work environment claim. The victim must also show that the unlawful conduct would have affected the work performance and psychological well-being of a reasonable employee, just as it did for the victim.

What Kind of Compensation Can I Get for a Hostile Work Environment Claim?

Although the value of the compensation due to you will depend on the circumstances of your case and the actual damages you suffered, and may include compensation for emotional distress. You may also be entitled to punitive damages if the conduct of your employer is really bad. Punitive damages can be awarded if a wrongdoer’s conduct is shockingly bad with the objectives of punishing the wrongdoer and deterring others from acting in the same way.
