Bay Area California Harassment Attorneys
Walnut Creek, Oakland, and Contra Costa county California
In California, both federal and state laws specifically outline how employers must treat their employees. The law outlines the civil rights granted employees to protect them from harassment in a hostile or offense workplace. Within these laws are categories of prohibited harassment that are in place to create a safe environment that extends equal opportunity employment to all workers and protects them from harmful physical attacks and unwanted verbal assault. These categories include:
- Race, color, national origin, or ancestry
- Religion
- Sex, pregnancy and childbirth, sexual orientation or gender
- Marital status
- Age (40 and over)
- Physical or mental disability
- Medical condition
- Veteran status
