Tampa Hostile Work Environment Attorneys
Should an employee in any Tampa workplace become subject to a pattern of exposure of unwanted sexual behavior, that employer may be held financially liable for fostering a hostile work environment. This differs, then, from quid pro quo sexual harassment. A Tampa employer may be held liable for sexual harassment even when there is no direct effect on the terms of an individual’s employment.
The Tampa hostile work environment attorneys at The Fraley Law Firm understand just how much a hostile work environment may impact your ability to perform your job duties. It is against Florida and Federal law for anyone to interfere with your right to earn a living.
If you have been subject to a hostile work environment in Tampa, we can help you recover any damages you have sustained as a result.
