Sexual harassment is a violation of the civil rights of a person. Many victims of sexual harassment do not get justice due to the difficulty that exists in identifying a conduct that qualifies to be sexual harassment. When a person cannot tell when a conduct has become sexual harassment, they are likely to continue suffering. If you ever feel that you have been sexually harassed, it is advisable to consult a sexual harassment lawyer. Sexual harassment lawyers will educate you on conduct that constitutes sexual harassment. They will also help you file a sexual harassment lawsuit and represent you during the case.

 

Legally, sexual harassment is any unacceptable sexual advances, request for sexual favors for benefits, a verbal persecution that is sexual in nature or comments that offend a person's sex. These actions have the effect of creating a working environment that is not conducive and lowers the morale of people. An employee who feels that they have been sexually harassed should report to the human resources for appropriate action. However, the human resources department may not do much to address the situation. If they do not address the situation, it's time to start looking a sexual harassment lawyer.
