Sexual Harassment Attorneys

Sexual Harassment Attorneys And Qualifications For AB 1825

Sexual discrimination in the work place can be humiliating, embarrassing and stressful for the victim. When situations occur, the first thing to do is tell the offender in no uncertain terms that his conduct makes you feel uncomfortable and you want it to stop immediately. It is important to have a witness if possible to hear your verbal exchange. You do not have to be rude, simply state something like "I am not interested in dating you, nor having a relationship with you. I think of you only as a co employee." This should end the harassment, but if not, then taking the offense to your employer is the next step. If a case needs to be investigated, EEOC will step in and search through any recorded or documented evidence of sexual harassment. In some cases, especially when there is no training provided by the employer or the employer is the offender, you should look up sexual harassment attorneys on the Internet to find one locally.

Forms of sexual harassment are gossip, jokes, sexual innuendos, grabbing, fondling, or any other unwelcome advances, and verbal abuse. This could include another employee referring to you by pet names such as baby, or using degrading labels for parts of your anatomy. If this makes you uncomfortable, it is sexual harassment. Another type of sexual harassment is when a workplace becomes so hostile, it is impossible to get any work done. The causes of this may be an employer asking for sexual favors to ensure you keep your job. Even when an employee feels forced to submit for fear of being fired, they may still file a lawsuit for psychological damage. Sexual harassment attorneys are specialized in all forms of discrimination and civil rights.

In order to protect themselves from lawsuits, employers and businesses should have sexual harassment training available to all employees. In California, law AB 1825 mandates training for companies who have 50 or more employees. Included in the training is gender discrimination, minorities rights, sexual and non sexual harassment, and solutions for solving the problems. In some cases, sexual harassment attorneys are brought in to teach the class. You will learn what discrimination is, how to stop it, your rights, and how to file a claim if necessary. This training will be repeated every 2 years from then on.
