A quick definition of stray remarks:

Term: Stray Remarks

Definition: Stray remarks are comments made by a coworker or supervisor about an employee's race, sex, age, national origin, or other status that may be offensive but are not considered harassment or discrimination by the employer. These comments are not meant to harm the employee's job and are not made in an official capacity. They are sporadic and unsystematic and do not show any intention to hinder the employee's continued employment.

Also known as: Stray comments

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Stray remarks are statements made by a coworker or supervisor about an employee's race, sex, age, national origin, or other status that are offensive but do not represent harassment or discrimination by the employer. These remarks are considered stray because they are sporadic, unsystematic, and unofficial, and do not show any intention to harm the employee's employment.

Example: A coworker makes a joke about a female employee's appearance, but it is not a regular occurrence and does not affect her ability to do her job. This would be considered a stray remark.

Explanation: The example illustrates a stray remark because the comment was not made with the intention of discriminating against the employee or creating a hostile work environment. It was a one-time occurrence and did not affect the employee's ability to do her job.
