    Clear Definition and Protection

    Sexual harassment and assault in the workplace are defined by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) as unwelcome sexual behavior, requests for sexual favors, acts of aggression or coercion, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature.
    This includes:
    • Unwanted sexual advances
    • Pressure for sexual favors
    • Exposure to sexually explicit materials
    • Retaliation for complaints about harassment
    • Creating a hostile work environment through sexually derogatory comments or actions
    • Aggressive acts of sexual coercion and / or blackmail

    Rights and Compensation for Victims

    1-800-WE-SURVIVED emphasizes the importance of understanding legal rights and protections. The Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 offer robust protections against sexual harassment and assault. Victims may receive compensation for mental anguish, retaliation, loss of income, damage to reputation, and more. In cases of egregious misconduct, punitive damages may also be awarded. Punitive damages work as a multiplier on the total damages amount. If your sexual harassment claim is worth $200,000, for example, then you could be entitled to $1,400,000 in punitive damages, for a total of $1,600,000 in damages.

    Addressing Retaliation and Providing Support

    Retaliation against victims for reporting sexual harassment or assault is illegal. 1-800-WE-SURVIVED's network of attorneys is equipped to handle these complex situations and ensure that victims' rights are protected. The organization offers 24/7 availability, allowing survivors to reach out for support whenever they need it.
