Workplace Harassment
Workplace harassment includes unwelcome conduct based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity), national origin, age (40 or older), disability, or genetic information. Harassment may involve offensive remarks, slurs, intimidation, threats, ridicule, inappropriate images, or conduct that interferes with work performance.
Harassment becomes unlawful when it is severe or pervasive enough to create a hostile work environment or when it leads to an adverse employment action, such as termination or demotion. The law also prohibits retaliation against individuals who report discrimination or participate in related investigations or proceedings.

Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. It may also involve offensive remarks about a person's sex, even if the conduct is not overtly sexual.
Harassment can be committed by supervisors, co-workers, or even clients and customers. Both men and women may be victims, and the harasser and victim may be of the same sex.
