Q: I was sexually harassed at work. What can I do?
It was by multiple employees. I contacted my bosses and upper managment. No one would help. I was forced out of a job and income. This happened over a few months ago but due to emotional distress and my safety I could not do anything. Also when I tried I was given no options.
A: The best thing to do would be to discuss it with an experienced employment attorney. You may contact me at jputh@correiaputh.com. Other lawyers who regularly represent employees are listed at www.mwela.org. I recommend you act promptly to ensure that any possible legal claims are preserved, as statutes of limitations for these types of claims can be short.
