Discrimination
Discrimination in a nutshell is treating an employee differently simply because of a certain attribute that he or she possesses. When employees are favored or not favored and discriminated on the basis of things such as skin color, race, cultural background, political views, affiliation, and so on.
These rules can be applied across all aspects of a job starting from recruitment to pay to firing and include job advertisements, wages, promotions, and termination.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment laws are strict and sexual harassment is a serious offense. It does not matter what sort of designation, authority, or how long the perpetrator has worked in the company, sexual harassment has to be rooted out and punished.
Sexual harassment is a domain that includes even hostile behavior which can be considered employee or personnel intimidation. Unwelcome sexual advances, lewd comments, groping, inappropriate touching, inappropriate electronic communications, indecent exposure, etc. are all considered sexual harassment.
Many sexual harassment victims remain quiet and do not raise the alarm bells in fear of retaliation or because they may lose their jobs or they believe their jobs could be in jeopardy if they say anything. However, such behavior should be condemned and made public, and legal action should be taken against the perpetrator.
In some cases, the victim will also be able to receive compensation for any damages that he or she may have had to face as a result of the sexual harassment.
If an employer or an organization fails to act against a complaint of sexual harassment, then the company itself can be sued by the victim provided he or she has the right legal support and legal team backing them.
