Sexual Harassment
Regardless of gender, no employee should have to endure the indignity, embarrassment, or trauma of sexual harassment in their workplace.Â
Victims with the courage to report sexual misconduct to their employers should expect swift action to address the problem. But if the harassment continues and an employer fails to take the appropriate investigatory and disciplinary steps in response, the target of the harassment should feel empowered to stand up for their rights, job, and dignity.
