Clarifies that sexual harassment and sexual assault constitute unlawful discrimination on basis of sex.

This bill (S 2692) would amend New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination to explicitly state that sexual harassment and sexual assault constitute unlawful discrimination based on sex. It clarifies that such conduct by employers or in the workplace violates existing anti-discrimination protections. This change directly affects employees experiencing sexual harassment or assault, making it legally clear that these acts are prohibited under the state's employment discrimination law. Employers would be required to prevent and address such conduct as part of their obligations under the law.
