Illegal Discrimination/HarassmentHarassment creates what is called hostile work environment. A "hostile work environment" is a type of unlawful discrimination. Most often unlawful harassment is associated with sexual harassment. However, the law also protects you from harassment on the basis of your age, race, sexual orientation, disability or your membership in another protected class. The general test for a matter to be considered severe enough for unlawful harassment is that the actions or words that are reported must be severe or pervasive enough to make a reasonable individual in your protected group believe that an abusive or unfriendly tone was created in your work environment.
