What is meant by hostile environment harassment?

When coworkers, customers, contractors, or anybody else the victim meets with at work behaves in an undesirable way and makes the workplace frightening, aggressive, or insulting, it creates a hostile environment. A hostile workplace claim must often be supported by evidence that you were harassed because of a protected trait. It was inappropriate to be harassed.

The harassment was serious enough or pervasive enough to make the workplace hostile. To determine whether an environment is "hostile," courts must consider the entirety of the circumstances, and they should take into account the non-exclusive list of factors below: (1) the frequency of the discriminatory conduct; (2) its seriousness; and (3) whether it is physically threatening or humiliating.
