![]() Have you been sexually harassed at work?Sexual harassment in Florida is prohibited under federal laws, as well as the Florida Civil Rights Act of 1992. This Act secures freedom from discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or marital status and also protects an individual’s interest in personal dignity.
People tend to think of sexual harassment as a scenario where a male superior requests sexual favors from a female employee. However it may be that sexual harassment involves a female superior and male employee or even a female and female or male and male situation. The commonality in each of these, is that the employee is always at a disadvantage because he or she knows that if they do not comply with the sexual harassment, they will suffer adverse actions such as a reduction in salary, termination of employment, or not receiving a promotion. |
