Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in Florida

Re: harassment

I agree with you that the managers action in this matter was unprofessional and humiliating. I am less sure that it was illegal. If your manager is making your love life and sexual preference a topic of conversation on a regular or recurring basis then you may have a valid claim of harrassment. In that case you may want to talk to an employment attorney or the EEOC. If it happened only once and never again it is unlikely you can do anything other than what you have done, that is complain "thru the chain of command." It is possible that if the manager has quit talking about this then your complaints to supervisors have had an effect even though it looks to you as if no action has been taken. As has often said, while discrimination and harassment is illegal there is no law against simply being a jerk. Good luck and hope things are better for you at work.
