Workplace harassment can be based on discrimination due to race, pregnancy, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation or skin color. If, as a result of discriminatory acts, an accident at work occurs that results in physical injury or illness to the employee, they have the right to claim workers' compensation and obtain benefits that help restore their health.
Harassment in the workplace is not limited to sexual harassment and does not prevent it from occurring between two people of the same sex. The harasser can be a boss, a supervisor from another department, a coworker or even a non-employee.The harasser may insult, physically assault, intimidate with threats, make mocking comments, etc. These attitudes are considered intolerable, as they damage the integrity of individuals and affect the work environment.
Despite advances in validating civil rights, discrimination and workplace harassment still occur very frequently in today's society.

Discrimination and harassment are different legal concepts. Discrimination consists of the denial of employment, termination and/or modification of employment conditions (such as salary, hours, bonuses and work assignments) based on a protected classification, such as race, age, gender, national origin, creed, marital status, disability, pregnancy, sexual orientation, transsexual status and, in San Francisco, height and/or weight. This law is registered in the California Government Code, section 12940.
Discrimination can be direct or indirect, which means it can target a single person or a group of people. It often involves behavior and statements, but sometimes can be shown in statistics, for example, when a policy affects some people and not others. It is only possible to sue employers and companies, even when a manager or submanager was responsible for the discriminatory behavior.

Workplace harassment can become a form of denigration, which affects performance and moral and personal integrity, which should not be allowed.
