Sexual advances, creating a hostile work environment that is blatantly sexual in nature, and sexual advances are some of the more prevalent forms of sexual harassment amongst employers.

How does Tennessee Law Prohibit Sexual Harassment?

Such policies should include items such as contact information for reporting harassment incidents, process for filing claims, and any corrective or preventative measures should a claim be proven.

The laws of the state of Tennessee and federal law have both established agencies with the authority to investigate sexual harassment claims. These agencies conduct investigations at a given Murfreesboro work site in order to verify if a complaint that they have received is true or not.
