Sexual harassment is a form of gender discrimination that creates a hostile workplace environment, and is actionable under California’s Fair Employment & Housing Act. Employers have a duty to protect their employees and prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.

 

Once sexual harassment is reported to a director, manager, or the Human Resources Department, the employer is expected to investigate the allegations and take appropriate measures to ensure the behavior ends. If the employer fails to act, they can be held legally liable and be forced to pay monetary compensation to the victim.
