Harassment is a form of employment discrimination that violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, (ADEA), and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, (ADA).

Under Title VII, there are two primary forms of harassment claims, which include sexual harassment in quid pro quo fashion and a hostile work environment. Similar to fraud and security training, employers should have a policy in place for sexual harassment to protect and prevent other illegal activities like bribery.

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act does not cover federal employees or independent contractors. However, federal employees are protected against discrimination by other federal anti-discrimination laws.

Furthermore, to prove a hostile work environment, employees must provide evidence that their employer failed to take action after the employee reported work environment concerns. Acceptable evidence includes documentation (emails or messages), incident reports, or potential witnesses.

It provides that a religious corporation, association, educational institution, or society is exempt from the provisions of Title VII that prohibit discrimination based on religion in the workplace.

Under federal law, unlawful workplace harassment is defined by three key factors: the conduct must be unwelcome, it must be either severe or pervasive, and it must interfere with the victim's work performance. If any of these factors are applicable in your situation, you may be eligible for financial compensation.

Verbal, visual, and physical harassment are a serious issue that can have damaging effects for individuals and the entire organization. Regardless of the type of harassment, it creates an environment of fear and intimidation that can lead to long-term feelings of anxiety and depression.
