Sexual Harassment and Hostile Work Environment

Sexual harassment can be as straightforward as supervisor’s request for sexual favors in exchange for promotion or raise, or it can be as subtle as employees discussing their sex lives or making lewd jokes. Regardless of the circumstances, victims of sexual harassment often harbor feelings of shame and fear of retaliation or because they believe they might have done something to cause the harassment.

At Caryn Groedel & Associates Co., LPA, we provide compassionate guidance to employees throughout Ohio and in many states (Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee, and Kansas) who have been subjected to sexual harassment or a hostile work environment. As your trusted advocates, we will work tirelessly to resolve your employment concerns.

There are certain steps that you may need to take in order to protect your rights, including reporting the harassment to your employer. Our lawyers will guide you through the process. Call 440-544-1122 to speak with one of our sexual harassment attorneys.

Sexual harassment can affect both men and women, and may include unwelcome sexual advances, demands for sexual favors, inappropriate touching or groping, sexually suggestive language, exposure to sexually explicit material through jokes or e-mail, and an employer’s failure to take appropriate action to stop the harassment. If the conduct is severe or pervasive, it may constitute a hostile work environment.
