SEXUAL HARASSMENT IN CALIFORNIA INCLUDES INAPPROPRIATE MATERIALS

In California, it is your employer’s job to make sure that your workplace is free of harassment. Whether it is coming from your employer or another co-worker, sexual harassment of any kind is against the law. Whether you are a man or a woman, you do not have to tolerate sexual harassment. Talk to an experienced employment lawyer if you work in a hostile environment.

When a female employee at a local Verizon complained about sexually offensive graffiti and materials in her work areas and work trucks, she claims that she was retaliated against for reporting the illegal behavior. She claims that she was subjected to retaliatory harassment, including the repeated hanging of a large plastic rat from the ceiling in a work area. She won $300,000 in damages for the harassment she suffered.
