Federal laws forbid discrimination and harassment based on an individual’s sex, race, or color in regard to any aspect of employment such as: hiring, firing, pay/wages, job assignments, promotions, layoff, training, fringe benefits, and any other term or condition of employment. Harassment occurs for the victim if the harasser employee/supervisor is informed same conduct is unwelcome but fails or refuses to stop the unwanted conduct. Retaliation in the form of termination or demotion often occurs when the victim reports the unwanted conduct or hostile work environment.
