Under current California law (Gov. Code §12923), a single incident of harassing conduct:
a.Can never create a hostile work environment
b.Is only actionable if it happens ten or more times
c.May be enough to establish a hostile work environment if it is sufficiently severe
d.Must be reported within 24 hours or it is waived
Explicación
Gov. Code §12923 clarifies that harassment need not be so severe or pervasive that it destroys the plaintiff's ability to work; a single serious incident can suffice to create a hostile environment. California intentionally set a plaintiff-friendly standard, so employers must take even isolated serious incidents seriously.
