Were you sexually harassed at work?
Unwanted sexual comments, messages, touching, pressure for dates or sex, or job consequences tied to sexual conduct may be unlawful. So may retaliation after you objected or reported it.
You can request a review even if you are not sure whether the conduct legally qualifies, never reported it to HR, or still work for the employer.
