You have one year to file with the DFEH or the EEOC from the last act of harassment. But, if it involves a co-worker rather than a supervisor, you must give your HR department an opportunity to investigate and stop the harassment, or your claim may be dismissed later. If it only happened once and was not ongoing, you may not be able to recover.
