Harassment of a sexual nature is illegal in California, as it is in the majority of the country. All forms of sexual harassment are illegal in the workplace in California, and businesses must provide their managers with training on how to spot and stop sexual harassment in the workplace.
California's Fair Employment and Housing Act classify two types of workplace sexual harassment: quid pro quo (or "something for something") harassment and hostile work environment harassment.
Sexual approaches from a superior that are accompanied by threats of disciplinary punishment (such as a poor performance assessment, a demotion, or even termination) are an example of quid pro quo harassment. As a professional & experienced lawyer, Cummings & Franck, P.C. are there for you to help you to prosecute the offender for his behavior and represent your interests in California sexual harassment law.

Hostile Work Environment Harassment
Hostile work environment sexual harassment is the other sort of sexual harassment that is recognized in California. Contrary to the more common kind of harassment, known as "reverse harassment," a hostile work environment may be initiated by any worker. As a form of workplace harassment, this does not need the use of coercive measures. Instead, a harasser engages in unwanted, sexist behavior that creates an environment that is frightening, unpleasant, or insulting
