Loading ...If you’re responsible for handling antidiscrimination cases, it’s probably best not to go about sexually harassing your fellow coworkers. Some employees of the Utah Antidiscrimination and Labor Division found this out the hard way as the division is now being sued by an ex-employee that was supposedly sexually harassed.
Since the details of the case aren’t that clear, all I can say is that every time a case like this comes up, I for one reason or another take the company’s side over the supposed “victim’s”. If the person was legitimately harassed, then obviously they have a right to sue, but I’ve been in work environments where people were petrified to say anything at all because of a few select employees that were known to raise hell at the sign of anything remotely inappropriate.
Should an entire office be forced to have a much more boring, fear driven environment because a single employee is overly sensitive? Again, true harassment of any kind should be punished, but people have taken things way too far.
File that under harassment harassment.
