Sexual Harassment

Do I Have a Sexual Harassment Case?

Not all rude or suggestive comments, even though they are inappropriate in a workplace setting, are considered sexual harassment under the law. However, your experiences may be considered sexual harassment if:

  • Your acceptance or rejection of sexual advances may affect your continued employment. For example, your supervisor may say that you will receive a promotion if you accept sexual advances (known as quid pro quo, or something for something else). Alternatively, your supervisor says you will be fired if you reject sexual advances. Both examples are sexual harassment.

  • If the comments or actions create a hostile work environment. For example, your boss may be constantly telling dirty jokes, commenting on attire, making sexual innuendos, or creating a hostile, sexually charged environment that interferes with your work performance.

  • If someone retaliates against you (such as wrongful termination ) after you complain about unwelcome sexual advances or offensive verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature toward you or a another employee.

If you think you may have a case against your employer, call the Los Angeles sexual harassment lawyers of Posner & Rosen. We are dedicated to helping you achieve a just and quick resolution of your sexual harassment case. We take employment-related problems very seriously and are driven by our understanding of the devastation many people feel when they experience sexual harassment.
