Every year hundreds of thousands of teen workers in the United States are subjected to unlawful sexual harassment. The teen employees are typically subjected to sexual harassment by their supervisors. They are subjected to harassment for numerous reasons including their age and relative inexperience in the workplace, low pay, and the threat of being easily replaced. Many teens simply do not know what legal protections they have in the workplace including the right to be free from sexual harassment and gender discrimination. A PBS recently aired a story on this subject featuring a young lady that was subjected to sexual harassment in the workplace. The video has been posted below.
