Find Out If Your Work Environment Qualifies as Hostile
The Law Office of John Klopfenstein in Salinas, California will help you figure out if your workplace merely is unbearable or qualifies as legally hostile.
If your boss or co-worker makes the performance of your daily job responsibilities difficult and derails your expectations for a comfortable and functional work atmosphere, the work environment stands to be labeled “hostile.”
If the communication you receive in your workplace smacks of discrimination, it is another indicator that your work might be “hostile.” Sexually suggestive/inappropriate behavior by work peers also qualifies a workplace as hostile.
If a boss covertly insults you, deriding you for your religion/ethnicity or so on, he/she is guilty of constructing a hostile workplace.
The workplace is doubly hostile if you’ve asked the people indulging in such hostility to stop and they have continued in their actions despite it.
If your boss has noticed this behavior and is not party to it personally but has done nothing to solve it, he/she is also accountable for this hostility.
Consult Us On How To Put A Stop To Hostility In The Workplace
The first thing a person caught up in a hostile work environment should do is inform the employer. If you intend to file a lawsuit later, you must allow your employer to investigate the situation of their own first. Otherwise, the employer can allege that you didn’t try to find an in-house solution before seeking the help of an employment lawyer. The employer may try to correct the environment at his workplace by terminating the employment of those making the workplace hostile.
