Sexual harassment is a violation of which act?

The correct choice highlights that sexual harassment is specifically addressed under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This landmark legislation prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Title VII not only prohibits overt forms of discrimination but also encompasses hostile work environment claims, which include incidents of sexual harassment. It establishes the framework through which individuals can seek justice and remedies for such violations in the workplace.

In contrast, Title IX of the Education Amendments primarily focuses on education equity and prohibits sex-based discrimination in educational settings but does not extend to employment law in the same capacity as Title VII. The Americans with Disabilities Act addresses discrimination against individuals with disabilities, while the Age Discrimination in Employment Act protects employees 40 years and older from discrimination based on age. These acts are significant in their own right but are not directly related to the issue of sexual harassment in the workplace.
