Many, many lawsuits follow this exact pattern.
Employee reports incident. Employer ignores.
Employee reports second incident. Employer ignores and/or takes it personal and feels insulted and/or decides to flex their muscle/power and threatens employee.
Employee feels trapped, unsure of how to proceed so employee continues to go to work and is worried/stressed/scared/etc
Employee either reports next incident or maybe sees that employer is not going to act or is corrupt or is trying to fire employee.
Employee begins to get nit-picked for small issues and/or is being watched in the hopes employee will make a mistake to justify the firing.
Employee finally goes to a lawyer and seeks a consultation.
Lawyer advises employee, "do NOT quit and CONTINUE TO DO ENT the incidents/their behavior/their communications/emails/etc"
A lawsuit is born.
