Workplace Harassment Rights in NJ

Attorney Kevin Costello

Workers have many rights in the workplace. New Jersey is a very progressive jurisdiction when it comes to that. When we’re talking specifically about your rights if you’re being harassed you have the right to complain, and you should complain.

Under some theories of law you have an obligation to complain, you have to complain to somebody in charge who is in a position to investigate, look into and discipline the harassers. You have a right, whether or not they agree with your allegation to be protected from any retaliation. No one can retaliate against you, change your work place conditions or take reprisals against you even if you are wrong about your complaint and if the company doesn’t agree.

You have the right to have an investigation and you have the right to have a determination of that investigation. The workers have a right to have their employer not ignore their complaints. If their employer ignores their complaints and the harassment continues that’s a separate offense under our law.
