The State of Minnesota defines sexual harassment as follows: "Sexual harassment includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, sexually motivated physical contact, or other verbal or physical conduct of communication of a sexual nature when:
- Submission to that conduct or communication is made a term or condition, either explicitly or implicitly, of obtaining employment, education, or
- Submission to or rejection of such conduct or communication by an individual is used as a factor in decisions affecting that individual's employment (or) education;
That conduct has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with an individual's employment or education or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive employment or educational environment and in the case of employment, the employer knows or should know, of the existence of the harassment and fails to take timely and appropriate action."
