August 12, 2008 by admin · Leave a Comment
Employees are protected under both state and federal law against workplace sexual harassment. Federal law remedies for workplace discrimination are based upon Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which applies to employers with fifteen or more employees. Similar state anti-discrimination laws usually protect people who work for smaller employers. Under federal law, same-sex sexual harassment can support a claim against an employer. State laws may vary on the issue of same-sex harassment.
There are two general categories of sexual harassment in the workplace:
- Quid Pro Quo Harassment - An employee is required to tolerate sexual harassment in order to obtain or keep a job, job benefit, raise, or promotion.
- Hostile Work Environment Harassment - Harassment at work unreasonably interferes with or alters the employee’s work performance, or creates a hostile, abusive or offensive work environment. In determining if a workplace environment is “hostile”,

A “wrongful death” occurs when a person is killed due to the negligence or misconduct of another individual, company or entity. An action for wrongful death belongs to the decedent’s immediate family members (often called “distributes”). The most common distributes are surviving spouses and children, and sometimes parents. The personal representative of the decedent’s estate may only bring a suit for wrongful death. Every state has a civil “wrongful death statute,” or set of statutes, which establish the procedures for bringing wrongful death actions. The personal representative also brings actions for personal injury, conscious pain and suffering, or expenses incurred prior to the decedent’s death. The damage awards from these actions belong to the estate and may pass to different parties as directed by the decedent’s will.
In order to bring a successful wrongful death cause of action, the following elements must be present:
- The death of a human being;
- Caused by another’s negligence, or with intent to cause harm; Read more
