How to Identify Sexual Harassment at Work

It is important to speak with an informed attorney if you experienced sexual harassment in the workplace. Women and men both can have sexual harassment directed at them, and it may come in several forms.

• Sexual harassment does not have to be physical or even verbal. Gestures, photos, posters, notes, leering looks and other actions may create a hostile environment.
• It can be perpetrated by a member of the same sex.
• It may occur during any work-related event, activity or function regardless of location.
• It may be a single act or a series of acts.
