The law of the state of Wyoming defines sexual harassment as conduct that is unwelcome, and encompasses both physical and verbal actions. Some types of sexual harassment that are most commonly committed by an employer include exchanging favoritism for sexual favors, the creation of a hostile work environment of a sexual nature, and sexual advances.

How does Wyoming Law Prohibit Sexual Harassment?

First, employers who are located in Casper can be required to establish and visibly post company policies regulating sexual conduct. These policies may include contact information for an employee to report sexual harassment, the procedure for handling such claims, and the corrective measures for when a claim is proven.

Additionally, federal and Wyoming laws create specific agencies which are responsible for handling sexual harassment cases. The agencies are given authority to investigate workplaces in Casper to determine if the incidents alleged in the complaints they receive are true. Such laws also make it illegal for employers to fire an employee for filing a harassment claim or to take any other action based on retaliation against the employee.

How can a Wyoming attorney help?

A claim for sexual harassment may be difficult to investigate and establish without the proper expertise in the relevant areas of law. It's not uncommon for federal investigators to be too busy to handle individual claims. Therefore, hiring an attorney in Casper can be the safest way to file your claim within the deadlines for sexual harassment claims that Wyoming has defined.
