Disability & Medical Leave
Most people, and even many employers, don’t know that in addition to the disability leave employees may be entitled to, that most employers must also continue to reasonably accommodate their employees disabilities.
Sexual Harassment
There are two types of sexual harassment:
1) “Quid pro quo” is when a supervisor demands sexual favors of a subordinate as a condition of getting or keeping a job benefit.
2) A “hostile work environment” arises when a co-worker, supervisor, or client engages in unwelcome and inappropriate sexually based behavior, rendering the workplace atmosphere intimidating, hostile, or offensive.

- Breach of employment contract
