What Constitutes Sexual Harassment In The Workplace?
You have the right to go to work without being subjected to sexual behavior that interferes with your job and makes the work environment unbearable. New Jersey recognizes two types of sexual harassment:
- Hostile work environment: When pervasive and unwelcome sexual conduct interferes with your ability to function in the workplace.
- Quid pro quo: Your employment depends on granting your harasser sexual favors.
Here are examples of sexual harassment:
- Groping or sexual assault
- Unwanted touching
- Demands for sex
- Repeated requests for dates
- Unwanted phone calls, texts or emails
- Stalking, either at or away from work
- Comments about your body
- Pornographic or sexually suggestive images
- Sexual jokes and innuendo
You don’t have to tolerate sexual harassment. Contact our compassionate and skilled attorneys if you experience any of these illegal behaviors.
