What Are 7 Examples of Sexual Harassment at Work? - BT Law Group, PLLC

From BT Law Group, PLLC - What Are 7 Examples of Sexual Harassment at Work? explores how workplace sexual harassment can appear through sexist comments, sexual jokes, unwanted touching, sexual battery or coercion, quid pro quo demands, explicit material, obscene gestures, and gender stereotype harassment. This episode explains how conduct at the office, work events, business trips, off-site meetings, and other job-related settings may raise concerns under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Florida Civil Rights Act, Fla. Stat. § 760.10.

Listeners will hear how Miami sexual harassment attorneys Jason D. Berkowitz and Anisley Tarragona of BT Law Group, PLLC, help employees in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties evaluate whether unwelcome workplace conduct may be severe or pervasive enough to create a hostile work environment. The discussion also covers key legal concepts from Meritor Savings Bank v. Vinson, including how courts consider frequency, severity, physically threatening or humiliating behavior, and interference with work performance.

It also explains employer liability when harassment involves a supervisor, co-worker, contractor, or customer over whom the employer has workplace control, along with how documentation, HR complaints, witness information, emails, texts, photos, voicemails, and permitted records can help preserve evidence.
