FREEHOLD WORK – RELATED SEXUAL HARASSMENT LAWYER

A cat call on the street can be irritating. Sexual harassment at work creates a hostile work environment that can impact every aspect of a person’s life. At The Law Office of Courthouse Pitbulls, we are committed to representing people who have been victims of sexual harassment.

While there are a wide range of actions that can be considered sexual harassment, it typically involves two types of actions:

WHAT IS SEXUAL HARASSMENT?

• Quid pro quo sexual harassment – This involves unwelcome sexual advances where the consequences of rejection implicitly or explicitly impacts an individual’s employment or advancement opportunities.
• Hostile work environment – This includes any verbal or physical actions that create a threatening or offensive work environment.

Sexual harassment can involve a wide range of unwelcome actions from offering employment for sex and graphic comments about someone’s body to physical contact of a sexual nature and targeting a person for special treatment based on their sex. The most common type of sexual harassment involves a male harassing a female. However, incidents of women harassing men and same sex harassment are increasing.
