Sexual harassment in the workplace may include unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, verbal, physical, or visual workplace conduct of a sexual nature, and other conduct that insults or demeans an employee’s sex. Sexual harassment is unlawful under 1. Submission to the conduct is a term or condition of employment; Hawai’i law also prohibits retaliation against an individual who has opposed sexual harassment or who has filed a complaint, testified, or assisted in any proceeding alleging sexual harassment. When an employee is subjected to sexual harassment or to retaliation, the employee should inform the employer or a supervisory employee of the harassment or retaliation. The employee may also contact us to ask questions about harassment or retaliation or to file a complaint.
