Workplace harassment includes unwelcome conduct based on protected characteristics (race, gender, age, disability, etc.) that creates a hostile work environment or results in adverse employment actions. This can include verbal abuse, offensive jokes, unwanted touching, or discriminatory treatment.
Document all incidents with dates, times, witnesses, and details. Report the harassment to HR or management following company procedures. Keep copies of all communications. Consult with an employment solicitor to understand your rights and options.
No, UK employment law prohibits retaliation against employees who report harassment or discrimination. If you face adverse employment actions after reporting, you may have additional claims for retaliation.
You generally have 3 months less one day from the last incident to file a tribunal claim, though early conciliation through ACAS is required first. It's important to act quickly to preserve your rights and evidence.
Compensation may include back pay, front pay, emotional distress damages, punitive damages, solicitor fees, and injunctive relief. In severe cases, damages can be substantial, especially when the employer failed to take corrective action.
