Fighting Against a Hostile Work Environment in Michigan
Sexual harassment is outrageous conduct that cannot be tolerated in any place of business. Sexual harassment can make it difficult, if not impossible for a person to perform their duties effectively. If you are experiencing sexual harassment at work, you may be wary of reporting this conduct to your supervisor. It is also unfortunately common for employees to experience some kind of retaliation, such as the loss of a job, for reporting sexual harassment.
