Connecticut law defines sexual harassment as any unwanted conduct of a sexual nature, whether they are verbal advances or physical acts. Sexual advances, creating a hostile work environment that is blatantly sexual in nature, and sexual advances are some of the more common forms of sexual harassment amongst employers.

How does Connecticut Law Prohibit Sexual Harassment?

First of all, employers in the city of Southington may be required to formulate company policies with regards to sexual harassment and post these in a visible location so that employees may be informed. The policies should at least include: contact information for the reporting of sexual harassment incidents, an outline of policies to be followed in filing a claim, and the remedies available when a claim successfully proven.

There are also federal and Connecticut laws that have formed agencies to handle sexual harassment claims. These agencies have authority to investigate a Southington workplace for the sexual harassment conduct that is alleged in the complaints they receive. Also, under these laws, employers may not fire or retaliate against any employee who has alleged sexual harassment in a claim.

How can a Connecticut attorney help?

Investigating and proving a sexual harassment claim might be difficult without consulting someone with expertise in the relevant laws.

Because of this, working with a Southington attorney may be the ideal way to make sure that your claim is processed in a timely manner.
