What Workplace Harassment Looks Like
Harassment is any unwelcome conduct that creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment. It may include offensive jokes, slurs, physical intimidation, unwanted advances, or retaliatory behavior. Whether from a supervisor, coworker, or client, such actions violate both New York and federal laws when based on protected characteristics such as race, gender, religion, or disability.
Your Legal Protections
New York State Human Rights Law (NYSHRL) and New York City Human Rights Law (NYCHRL) provide robust safeguards for employees. These laws prohibit harassment based on personal identity or beliefs, regardless of workplace size or job title. Our firm helps clients understand these rights, document their experiences, and pursue accountability through formal complaints or legal action.
