Sexual Harassment Guidelines
Clients should not have to work anywhere that compromises their health, safety, or welfare. Moreover, MiJo Sports Agency is committed to ensuring that clients are free to do their best work without experiencing harassment. We want clients to feel comfortable speaking out in instances where violations of anti-harassment laws may have occurred. We want our clients to feel supported and empowered. When violations of anti-harassment laws may have occurred, clients should always feel free to reach out to their agent for support.
We also want to ensure that clients have all the relevant resources they need, including government services. Depending on the situation, clients may choose to reach out to the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH), the New York City Commission on Human Rights (NYCCHR), the New York State Division of Human Rights (NYSDHR), or the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Clients in Florida may also contact the Florida Commission of Human Relations for any assistance in Florida. Clients can use the contact information below to learn more about harassment, their rights, and how to report violations.
DFEH states that its mission is “to protect the people of California from unlawful discrimination in employment, housing and public accommodations, and from the perpetration of acts of hate violence and human trafficking.”
