The following excerpt is from Jordan v. United Health Grp. Inc., 18-2268 (2nd Cir. 2019):
The district court correctly concluded that Jordan failed to meet the elements required to show a hostile work environment. "A hostile work environment claim requires a showing (1) that the harassment was sufficiently severe or pervasive to alter the conditions of the victim's employment and create an abusive working environment, and (2) that a specific basis exists for imputing the objectionable conduct to the employer." Alfano v. Costello, 294 F.3d 365, 373 (2d Cir. 2002).
