Re: Verbal Harassment
The definition of verbal harassment will depend on the circumstances. For example, in a sexual harassment situation verbal harassment may involve unwanted sexual requests or it may involve sexually offensive jokes. Race, age, national origin harassment may involve comments that would tend to demean or otherwise stereotype individuals because of their status. If you have charges pending at "the labor board", you may want to secure experianced counsel, as such cases may lead to substantial legal and financial liability.
