Under California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and federal law (Title VII of the Civil Rights Act), sexual harassment is a form of unlawful workplace discrimination. It includes:

– Quid Pro Quo Harassment
When job benefits (like promotions, raises, or continued employment) are conditioned on submitting to sexual advances.

Example: A supervisor says you’ll get a raise only if you go on a date or engage in sexual activity.

When unwelcome sexual behavior creates an abusive or offensive work atmosphere.

Example: Repeated sexual jokes, inappropriate touching, comments about appearance, or sharing explicit images—even if not directed at you—can all contribute to a hostile environment.

– Unwanted sexual advances or flirtation
– Verbal harassment (sexual jokes, remarks, comments)
– Physical harassment (touching, brushing up, groping)
– Displaying or sharing sexually explicit content
– Leering, gestures, or suggestive body language
– Requests for sexual favors
– Retaliation for rejecting advances or filing a complaint
– Harassment based on gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation

Harassment can come from supervisors, coworkers, clients, vendors, or even third parties—and employers have a duty to stop it once they know (or should know) it’s happening.

If you’ve been harassed at work, you may be entitled to:

– Compensation for emotional distress and trauma
– Lost wages or job reinstatement
– Punitive damages in cases of egregious misconduct
– Reimbursement of attorneys’ fees and court costs
