Matern Law Group, PC is an employment law firm based in Oakland, CA.
Have you been a victim of quid pro quo sexual harassment at work in a current or past position? If you have experienced harassment related to sexual favors (promotions, raises, positive reviews, continued employment), retaliation, or reprimands, then you may be a victim of quid quo pro sexual harassment and would be protected under federal laws.
The Latin term quid pro quo translates to “something for something.”
Therefore, quid pro quo harassment occurs in the workplace when a manager or other authority figure offers or merely hints that he or she will give the employee something (a raise or a promotion) in return for that employee’s satisfaction of a sexual demand. This also occurs when a manager or other authority figure says he or she will not fire or reprimand an employee in exchange for some type of sexual favor. A job applicant also may be the subject of this kind of harassment if the hiring decision was based on the acceptance or rejection of sexual advances.
Our attorneys are devoted to employee representation for all types of workplace sexual harassment.
Matern Law Group, PC is committed to obtaining justice for you. We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional legal services to our clients.
