Sexual Harassment

Sexual Harassment Has No Place in the Workplace

While laws have become more stringent and ongoing training is provided to staff to raise awareness, sexual harassment still exists in many workplaces. Severe and pervasive acts that create hostile work environments continue to be an ongoing problem.

If a superior victimizes you because of your gender, you need a higher level of advocacy to hold your boss and your employer accountable. At the Kansas City Employee Rights Law Firm—Law Offices of Mark A. Jess, L.L.C., we take a proactive and hard-charging approach to see that justice is served.

From inappropriate comments to unwanted touching, sexual harassment can take many forms. Victims of this inappropriate behavior need a seasoned advocate at their side. Contact an attorney at 816-399-5609 or toll free at 877-287-2162.

When Your Work Environment Turns Hostile Because of Sexual Harassment

A supervisor praises an employee on the way he or she looks. A boss engaged in unwelcome or inappropriate physical contact. A co-worker makes inquiries about someone's sex life. You are offered a promotion, better review, or raise if a sexual request is granted. All of the aforementioned acts can turn a work environment hostile in a split second.

Holding the Harassers Accountable and Protecting Your Rights

Sexual harassment in any form has no place in a professional setting. You should be able to report it without the fear of retaliation. At the Employee Rights Law Firm—Law Offices of Mark A. Jess, L.L.C., we seek justice for our clients by thoroughly investigating the claim and building a case based on facts.

In the end, our job is to hold the offending parties accountable for facilitating a work environment that is anything but friendly and productive.
