New Hampshire Workplace Harassment Lawyers
Protection from New Hampshire Employment Lawyers
Did you know that you are protected from any form of harassment? The state of New Hampshire has multiple laws that protect you from discrimination and hostile work environments.
Any unwelcomed behavior, whether it is verbal or physical, against anyone regardless of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or disability, is a direct violation of the Civil Rights Act. In New Hampshire, you are protected from acts of harassment under RSA 354-A:6 and 7. If you are a victim of a hostile work environment or you are being threatened, you need to work with an attorney. Examples of workplace harassment can include:
- Unwanted sexual advances or sexual touching or comments
- Sexual jokes or innuendos
- Racial, sexual or ethnic slurs, derogatory statements or images
- Religious harassment
- Unwanted physical or verbal comments regarding someone’s disabilities
