Sexual Harassment Attorneys
Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination that
violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Unwelcome sexual advances,
requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a
sexual nature constitute sexual harassment when this conduct creates an
intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment. According to the
United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, sexual harassment
can occur in a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to
the following:
- The victim as well as the harasser may be a woman or a man. The victim
does not have to be of the opposite sex.
- The harasser can be the victims supervisor, an agent of the employer,
a supervisor in another area, a co-worker, or a non-employee.
- The victim does not have to be the person harassed but could be anyone
affected by the offensive conduct.
- Unlawful sexual harassment may occur without economic injury to or
discharge of the victim.
- The harassers conduct must be unwelcome.
- Moreover, harassment does not have to include overtly sexual content.
- Intimidation and hostility toward women because they are women can
result from conduct other than explicit sexual advances.
