SEXUAL HARASSMENT AT WORK ILLEGAL IN CALIFORNIA – CONTACT EMPLOYMENT LAWYERS IF YOU ARE A VICTIM

Sexual harassment in the workplace is against the law. This means that your employer may not offer to trade sexual favors for work-place benefits. It is also illegal if a co-worker, manager, employer, etc. makes you uncomfortable because of your sex through severe and pervasive offensive behavior. This type of harassment is known as a ‘hostile work environment.’

Sexual harassment at work is sadly commonplace. Four San Diego firefighters recently won a suit they brought against the city of San Diego for forcing them to participate in a Gay Pride Parade. The firefighters claimed they were sexually harassed during the parade. They won the suit, and received $34,000 in damages.
