Have You Been The Target Of Obscene Gestures At Work?

Sometimes a co-worker or supervisor is trying to be funny or does not realize that the behavior is offensive. However, non-verbal gestures may constitute sexual harassment if the behavior is sexual in nature and makes you uncomfortable, even if the gestures are not specifically aimed at you.

Examples of sexual gestures that may cross the line into harassment and a hostile work environment:

  • Hip thrusts and other sexually suggestive actions
  • Hand gestures that simulate sex acts
  • Obscene gestures with the lips or tongue
  • Simulating groping or touching
  • Use of the middle finger in a threatening or sexual way
  • Body language used to corner, trap or threaten
  • Leering, ogling and suggestive facial expressions

Obscene gestures may be part of a pattern of offensive behavior, or they may be used to silently harass someone without witnesses. It is important to document every instance of such behavior and to report it to the company. Our attorneys can help you establish the basis for a sexual harassment claim in San Francisco so that you get justice for what you have endured.
