Workplace Sexual Harassment: What It Is And What Is Isn’t

Sexual harassment is one of the most commonly misunderstood aspects of law. The law recognizes two different types of sexual harassment:

• Quid pro quo, in which an employer demands sexual favors in exchange for promotion or other job-related benefits.
• Hostile work environment, in which a workplace displays a hostile and pervasive pattern of inflicting sexually suggestive imagery, suggestions, gestures, etc. A few isolated incidents do not typically make for a valid sexual harassment case.

Most likely, you need to give your employer a chance to remedy sexually harassing behavior. Most employee manuals dictate internal processes that employees must follow before filing a sexual harassment lawsuit against the employer.

For anyone who may have a sexual harassment case, it is vital to preserve as much evidence as possible. People often expect that their co-workers will step forward to testify, and then are disappointed to see people refuse to testify because they are afraid doing so will jeopardize their jobs.
