Sexual Harassment in CA

Sexual harassment is illegal in all workplaces in CA. It occurs where an employee is unfairly targeted by an employer, supervisor or co-workers because of their sex or gender. California laws expressly declare harassing conduct at work unlawful and employers who permit this conduct to exist or continue can be held responsible.

The laws on sexual harassment in CA do not just apply to where you are propositioned for sex though. The purpose of these laws is to prohibit all instances of intimidation, assault and wrongful contact on the basis of sex, gender, pregnancy or related conditions. If you are being made to feel inadequate, unqualified or incapable simply because of your gender or pregnancy, you are protected under these laws. If someone at work consistently targets you for unfavorable comments, wicked jokes or inappropriate messages because of your sex, the laws also protect you.

It is in the best interest of all workers in CA for you to protest when you are subjected to conduct of this nature. With every co-worker, supervisor or employer that is made accountable for their wrongful behavior, you help ensure others are free from conduct of this nature. If you are being made to endure harassment in any form at work, immediately contact our Corona sexual harassment attorney for help.

How to Fight Sexual Harassment as a Third Party

There are other situations where the harassing conduct may be directed towards another person instead of you. For instance, you may have a co-worker who is constantly made fun of at work because of their gender identity or sex. When these inappropriate jokes become toxic, you may be able to maintain an action against the responsible parties.

A claim of this nature is usually referred to as an action for work environment harassment. But it will be on the basis of conduct directed at others. To understand if you might have a claim here, see if these factors apply to you.

  • Are you an employee? The anti-harassment laws apply to employees, interns and temporary workers. If you do not qualify as an employee, you may not be able to bring an action here.
  • Did you witness damaging conduct? The next step is to see if you witnessed harassing conduct directed at someone else. If someone was being sexually harassed at work, it may create a hostile work environment, giving you a separate claim to sue.
  • Have you suffered damage? As with most cases under these laws, you must have suffered damage in order to file a claim. Usually, it is enough to show that your work suffered as a result.

If these factors apply to you, your next step should be to contact our hostile work environment attorney in Corona, CA. We will listen to your story and help you strategize on how to hold the at-fault parties responsible for their conduct.

Must I be Personally Affected by the Sexual Harassment?

California’s anti-harassment laws seek to achieve two broad purposes. First, they are designed to unfair and hurtful social interactions that cause injury to workers. Second, they are aimed at preventing the maintenance of a hostile and abusive work environment.

Due to these broad aims, it is possible for a worker to file a complaint for sexual harassment even if they were not the focus of the attacks. Harassment directed against any person makes a workplace unfair and unsafe. When such conditions exist at work, they can affect any person, even someone that was not directly targeted. Beyda v. City of Los Angeles (1998) 65 Cal.App.4th 511, 519 [76 Cal.Rptr.2d 547].

This means if you are a woman, for instance, and you witness other women being harassed at work, you can file a complaint. However, you would need to show that the conduct unreasonably interfered with your work performance.

In order to show harm, it is not necessary to prove that your own productivity declined. It is enough to show that a reasonable person in the same environment would find it more difficult to do their job. Harris v. Forklift Sys. (1993) 510 U.S. 17, 25 [114 S.Ct. 367, 126 L.Ed.2d 295].

Is this Restricted to Only Sexual Harassment Claims?

No. It applies to other wrongful conduct under FEHA as well. If any worker is experiencing hostile, intimidating or oppressive conduct at work, you can sue as well, if it affects your work.

Unlawful or hostile conduct is wrong no matter where it occurs. Even if you are not directly a target of this conduct, you can contribute to bringing to an end if you are also affected. However, determining if you are within the range of persons that can act against such conduct can be tricky.

It you are experiencing a hostile environment at work, speak to our Corona, CA workplace harassment attorneys for guidance.
