Workplace Harassment
Under law, harassment on the basis of race, religion, sex, color, age, or disability is prohibited and is a cause for concern. This conduct is not permitted by the employer or workplace and as such could be used as a case against them due to the infringement of your rights.
In order for harassing conduct to be considered unlawful, the activity must be unwelcome and a result of the victim’s protected class. This conduct should also be abusive to the victim as well as severe and repetitious that a reasonable person would find it hostile.
