Signs of a Pasadena Hostile Work Environment
Victims of hostile work environments are often mistreated due to such protected traits as their:
- Race
- Gender
- Gender expression
- Age
- Disability
- Nationality
- Religion
- Marital status
- Pregnancy status
- Sexual orientation
Forms This mistreatment can take include (but isn’t necessarily limited to) the following:
- Racial jokes or slurs
- Questions about one’s sexual activities, history, or preferences
- Spreading rumors about one’s sexual history or activities
- Jokes about one’s disability
That’s not an exhaustive list by any means. If you’re not sure whether the behavior of your coworkers or supervisor qualifies as hostile, review your case with a Pasadena hostile work environment lawyer for more information.
Additionally, a hostile work environment may be one in which someone is the target of sexual harassment. Although both California laws and federal laws strictly prohibit workplace sexual harassment, it still occurs across numerous industries.
How to Build a Pasadena Hostile Work Environment Case
Enlisting the help of an experienced Pasadena hostile work environment attorney is very wise when taking legal action. Proving you have a valid case is easier with the assistance of a legal professional who understands the nuances of all applicable laws in these circumstances.
That said, there are steps you can take on your own before meeting with an attorney to strengthen your case. They include:
- Following the steps outlined in your employee handbook for reporting a hostile work environment to HR
- Identifying witnesses (which may include both coworkers and clients) who can corroborate your story
- Saving any evidence of hostility, such as emails, chat logs, etc.
- Making a note of the date and time when an incident of hostility occurs, and writing a description of the incident
- Identifying the negative consequences you’ve experienced as a result of working in a hostile environment

If you’re a victim of a hostile work environment, taking legal action could potentially allow you to receive compensation for such losses as:
- Lost wages
- Counseling expenses, if working in a hostile environment resulted in the need for mental health services
- Pain and suffering
Additionally, if your employer’s behavior or negligence regarding a hostile work environment was particularly egregious, you may be awarded punitive damages, which serve to punish an employer who cultivates a hostile work environment or fails to address hostility in the workplace. If you’ve lost your job or had to quit due to working in a hostile environment, you may also be able to seek reinstatement.
