Reporting Workplace Sexual Harassment: What Every Employee Should Know

Experiencing sexual harassment in the workplace can be overwhelming, but knowing how to report it can help protect both your rights and your well-being. If you experience or witness inappropriate conduct, it's important to document what happened, including dates, times, locations, and any witnesses. Review your employer's reporting procedures and report the behaviour through the appropriate channels whenever possible.

Employees are protected under federal and state laws from retaliation for reporting workplace harassment in good faith. If your employer fails to address the issue or retaliates against you, there may be additional legal options available.
