Dangers of Remaining Uncertified:
Sexual harassment is unwelcome sexual physical or verbal conduct in the workplace. Understanding the differences in the two categories is important because they have different liability implications.
Federal law forbids sexual harassment under Title VII of the Civil Right Act of 1964. Title VII covers employers who employ, or have employed, 15 or more employees for each working day in 20 or more calendar weeks in the current or preceding calendar year.
Sexual harassment is illegal under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act. Sexual harassment protections extend to applicants, employees, unpaid interns, professional relationships and independent contractors.
Sexual harassment can include all types of conduct, such as asking for sexual favors, sexual touching, offensive language or posters. Generally, the conduct must be so frequent or severe that it creates a hostile or offensive working environment or results in an adverse employment decision (such as a firing).
Sexual harassment law covers the actions of supervisors, coworkers, customers and vendors. Depending on the actions, or inaction, of you and your employees, you may be held liable.
Although sexual harassment receives the most attention and publicity, harassment on the basis of any protected class violates federal and state law and is considered a form of discrimination. For example, harassment on the basis of age, race, sexual orientation, gender identity or religion is unlawful.
