in Denver and throughout Colorado and Wyoming
Sex discrimination is prohibited by Title VII as well as state laws, such as the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act.
Sexual harassment can be a form of sex discrimination, and generally falls into one of two categories, depending on the type of conduct involved. The first is referred to as quid pro quo and the second as hostile environment. Quid pro quo harassment generally refers to a situation where submission to unwelcome sexual advances is, either explicitly or implicitly, made a term or condition of the individual's employment or where submission to or rejection of unwelcome sexual advances is used as a basis for decisions affecting the individual's employment. Hostile environment or workplace discrimination occurs when the workplace is so polluted as to affect the terms and conditions of a person's employment.
Discrimination based on pregnancy is also generally regarded as a form of sex discrimination.
