A hostile work environment is a legal claim under federal anti-discrimination laws. What it means is that an employee has been subjected to severe or pervasive harassment at work that has affected a term or condition in their employment.

You break that down by saying, basically, this can't just be rude behavior or obnoxious behavior at work. It has to be a pattern of severe or pervasive harassment that the employee is being subjected to that's based upon their race, or their gender, or their religion. It can't just be a pattern of rude behavior, generally. It needs to be because this person is a woman or because this person is African-American that they are being harassed, steadily at work.
