Sexual harassment is prevalent in the California workplace. It can occur at the hands of your employer or another co-worker. Either way, if it falls into the category of sexual harassment it is against the law. You, the employee, can sue your employer for damages resulting from the unlawful behavior you were a victim of. Talk to an experienced employment lawyer for more information on sexual harassment.

There are two different types of sexual harassment claims that the CA court recognizes and an experienced employment lawyer can help you distinguish which type you experienced. The first type is Quid Pro Quo - sexual harassment that occurs when your supervisor or another person in an authority position requests sex, or a sexual relationship, in exchange for not firing or otherwise punishing you. the request can also be in the form of an exchange for favors, such as promotions or raises. The second type is a Hostile Work Environment - sexual harassment that occurs through the presence of demeaning or sexual photographs, jokes or threats. The inappropriate behavior or conduct must be so pervasive as to, as the name suggests, create an intimidating and offensive work environment.
