State and Federal Sexual Harassment Law

State and federal laws protect workers from sexual harassment. All too often, however, these harmful practices persist, leaving employees to contend with unfair treatment, limited employment activities and physiological consequences. Unfortunately, many victims of sexual harassment are reluctant to come forth with a claim, fearing retaliation and job loss.

Sexual harassment claims are broken down into two general categories:

Quid pro quo

Claims in which an authority figure requests sexual favors in exchange for promotion, continued employment and other considerations.

Hostile work environment

Claims involving inappropriate behavior in the workplace, including sexual jokes, pictures and offensive acts.
