A hostile-environment harassment is one where a worker's attitude in the workplace is such that it makes the workplace uncomfortable or non-conducive for another worker. This harassment is usually as a result of discrimination of any type; from age to gender, color, religion, sexual orientation, etc

Hostile-environment harassment can be considered illegal when it becomes a condition for the worker to remain employed or when the workplace environment has become intimidating or non-conducive for the other worker.

I hope this helps

Answer:

A. hostile (work) environment harassment.

Explanation:

Sexual harassment at work violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination at work based on sex, race, color, etc.

In order for a conduct to be considered sexual harassment it must meet at least one of the following two criteria:

having to endure the offensive conduct of the harasser is a condition for a person to keep working.
the harassment creates a work environment that a reasonable person would consider hostile, abusive or intimidating ⇒ i.e. the harassment creates a hostile work environment. it doesn't matter if the harasser is a woman and the harassed individual is a man, under the law we are all the same.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the federal agency in charge of handling claims regarding sexual harassment at work.
