Workplace Protections

Am I protected if the abuser is harassing or stalking me at my job?

The law says that an employer may not fire, suspend, or discipline you if:

  • you receive any of the following at your workplace by someone who committed domestic violence against you:
    • an unwanted visit;
    • unwanted telephone calls;
    • harassing e-mails;
    • packages; or
  • you are stalked by the abuser at the job site.1

However, your employer may require you to get a restraining order for your protection after the first incident on the job.1
