If you have been sexually harassed on the job, an Austin Sexual Harassment Lawyer can help you claim compensation for distress, hurt, lost income as well as pain and suffering. You don’t have to be sexually harassed several times to be eligible for a claim. Sexual harassment is illegal and you can protect your rights by taking action proactively. 

Understanding Workplace Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment includes requests for sexual favors and unwelcome sexual advances. Unfortunately, a lot of victims do not come forward because of fear of retaliation. But, the law protects victims by holding the harasser accountable for their actions. A great attorney thinks that every employee deserves to work in a place where they have peace of mind, so they can focus on the work at hand. However, being sexually harassed can interfere with a worker’s ability to concentrate on their work and maximize their performance. If you experience sexual harassment on the job, do not hesitate to consult an employment lawyer. 

Taking Action After Being Sexually Harassed at Work

If you experience sexual harassment on the job, keep a diary of the conduct. Take note of unwelcome conduct, along with the date it occurred, as well as the names and addresses of those who witnessed the harassment. Also, seek advice from human rights or anti-discrimination associations. But, they can’t offer legal advice. That is why you must speak with a harassment attorney if you have questions on the obligations of your employer under the law. 

Moreover, you can also file a formal or informal complaint. Speak with your supervisor, an HR staff, or someone you trust. Or you can file a formal complaint. When possible, you can try and resolve the matters within your organization before you seek legal action. Once you give advice, try to speak with your harasser and let them know their behavior is not wanted and making you feel uncomfortable. 

What If Your Boss Dismissed You After You File a Complaint?

If you have been fired for making a complaint or feel that you wanted to resign because of it, talk to your lawyer to know your legal option. Wrongful termination can be a form of discrimination and you need legal advice to know the actions to take. As a harassment victim, it is your right to make your experience known, so you can seek help. But, if your boss retaliates against you for doing so, you have another ground for taking legal action.
