Understanding Workplace Harassment Regulations and Laws?

No matter who you are, where you work or what you do, everyone can become a victim of workplace harassment. Harassment in the workplace takes on many forms, including sexual harassment, physical harassment and mental harassment, and each can take a toll not only on your performance at work, but also on your personal life. While many companies have begun to put in place regulations regarding workplace harassment, it is still an unfortunate statistic in many industries. Harassment in the workplace can have various definitions, but it typically is defined as words or actions that cause harm to other employees, usually in an attempt to intimidate. Individual companies and industries may devise their own standards for what constitutes harassment, but usually, any words or actions that are unwelcome could be thought of as harassment. Because of this, most companies have in place a series of escalation procedures for dealing with harassment. If an offensive statement is made, an employee might be warned about their behavior first, as they might not have realized that they were harassing another employee. After the initial warning, any future occurrences may result in a harassment charge, as the employee has now been made aware that their behavior is harassing. However, if a behavior is grossly inappropriate, the employee may be subject to immediate harassment charges. In terms of the law, harassment charges may become a bit more murky. Because there is no current Federal workplace harassment law, most harassment cases are treated as crimes of a separate definition. An example of this would be if someone at your workplace lightly and repeatedly hit you on a daily basis, even after you've told them to stop. While this would constitute workplace harassment, the charges brought against the harasser would most likely be assault and battery. One area of the law that does concern itself primarily with workplace harassment is civil rights. In 1964, Congress passed the Civil Rights Act, making it a crime to discriminate against someone based on a variety of factors, including race, religion and gender. In the workplace, any harassment that causes a violation of someone's civil rights may be subject to criminal or civil charges being filed. Additionally, cases involving the use of intimidation to obtain favors can also be a violation of one's civil rights, leading to charges being brought forward as well.
