Sexual Harassment LawyersSexual Harassment We Understand that Retaliatory Discharge and Sexual Harassment are Still Too CommonDespite decades of public awareness regarding the problems of sexual harassment in the workplace and retaliatory discharge, unfortunately these problems still persist in too many places of employment. If you believe that you have been sexually harassed at work or fired or threatened with retaliation after reporting or complaining of sexual harassment, the sexual harassment lawyers of Ross Law Group are here to help. What Constitutes Sexual Harassment?The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), defines sexual harassment as: "unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitutes sexual harassment when submission to or rejection of this conduct explicitly or implicitly affects an individual's employment, unreasonably interferes with an individual's work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment." Retaliatory DischargeOur sexual harassment attorneys know that it is often easier to prove retaliatory discharge than it is to prove the existence of on-the-job sexual harassment. Retaliatory discharge occurs after an employee complains of sexual harassment and is subsequently fired or laid off as a result. While generally employers have the legal right to fire their employees for any reason, or no reason at all, it is illegal for an employer to fire an employee because he or she claimed to be targeted with sexual harassment. The sexual harassment lawyers at the Austin law firm of Ross Law Group, stand beside employees who have suffered damaging emotional, vocational, and financial losses because of sexual harassment or retaliatory discharge.
