SEXUALLY EXPLICIT PORNOGRAPHIC MATERIAL MAY NOT BE ALLOWED IN YOUR CALIFORNIA WORKPLACE
In California, it is against the law for your employer to create a sexually hostile work environment. Additionally, if one of your co-workers is harassing you, or otherwise creating a hostile environment, it is up to your employer to take care of the illegal behavior and protect you. Examples of behavior creating a sexually hostile work environment can include inappropriate jokes, sexual gestures and come ons, and porn. Talk to an experienced employment lawyer if you’ve been sexually harassed at work.
When a female city firefighter in CA started to feel uncomfortable with all the porno magazines she found around the firehouse, she reported her discomfort to her supervisor. Instead of resolving the situation and removing the inappropriate materials, the other firefighters allegedly taunted and shunned her. As a result, she is suing for over $200,000 in damages for the sexual harassment she suffered.
