Workplace Harassment Lawyer in San Francisco
Workplace harassment can be degrading, disruptive, and deeply personal. In San Francisco’s fast-paced and diverse work environments, harassment may involve gender, race, disability, sexual orientation, national origin, or other legally protected characteristics—and it is never something employees are required to tolerate.
Harassment can take many forms, including offensive or demeaning comments, slurs, threats, unwanted physical contact, sexually explicit remarks, images, or unwelcome sexual advances. Sexual harassment affects people of all genders and may include requests for sexual favors, inappropriate propositions, or employment benefits being conditioned on accepting unwanted conduct.
A hostile work environment exists when harassing behavior becomes so severe or persistent that it interferes with an employee’s ability to do their job. When supervisors engage in harassment—or when employers know (or should know) about the conduct and fail to take meaningful corrective action—California law may hold the employer responsible.
