Re: sexual harassment and returning to work.
You will be entitled to unemployment compensation if the harassment is found to be a necessitous and compelling reason for leaving your job. Whether or not your situation qualifies depends on the specific nature of the harassment. You should have you situation reviewed by an attorney familiar with employment law to insure your rights are protected.
