Our firm can address all issues of sexual harassment in the workplace, including same-sex harassment and harassment inflicted on the GLBT community as well as claims related to:
Requiring Sexual Favors to Keep Your Job or Advance (Quid Pro Quo)
Quid pro quo harassment typically consists of efforts by your supervisor or someone else at work in a position of power and authority to require you to perform sexual favors in exchange for job advancement or to keep your job.
Hostile Work Environment
"Hostile work environment" harassment is where the harassment is sufficiently pervasive so as to alter the conditions of employment and create an abusive work environment. You do not need to show loss of a tangible job benefit, but only that the harassing conduct was severe and pervasive enough that it affected your working conditions. Has your boss or co-worker made unwelcome sexual advances? Are you subjected to lewd comments or sexually offensive jokes and taunting?
What you can do
Keep a log. Once you realize that you are being harassed, document everything--inappropriate email, verbal harassment, anything--when it happens. If you decide to bring a lawsuit, this will help you greatly in building your case.
Consult with one of our lawyers. Contact our office so that we may advise you of your rights against your employer under these stressful circumstances. Everyone is entitled to work in an environment free of harassing conduct and sexual harassment.
