Every employee has the right to a harassment-free work environment. Workplace sexual harassment is prohibited on both a federal and state level by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, as well as state criminal codes. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) definition of sexual harassment encompasses any unwanted sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other behavior of a sexual nature that interferes with an employee’s work performance, implicitly or explicitly impacts employment decisions, or creates a hostile work environment.
