Hostile Work Environment

A hostile work environment exists when discriminatory conduct creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive workplace that interferes with an employee's ability to perform their job. We represent victims of hostile work environments based on any protected characteristic, including race, national origin, religion, age, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, and other categories protected under federal and New Jersey law. Under NJLAD, even a single discriminatory incident can constitute an unlawful hostile work environment if it is sufficiently severe, providing stronger protection than many federal statutes. Our firm handles cases involving pervasive harassment, derogatory comments or slurs, offensive visual displays, physical intimidation, and other conduct that creates a toxic workplace, seeking full compensation for the emotional and professional harm you've suffered.
