A previous blog post discussed sexual harassment in the workplace. This post discusses steps that an employer can take to avoid liability for sexual harassment, or at least minimize legal exposure.
1. Have a Sexual Harassment Policy
An employer should have a clearly articulated sexual harassment policy that:
- expressly prohibits sexual harassment in the workplace;
- defines and provides examples of sexual harassment;
- establishes the scope of the policy in relation to employees and third parties; and
- establishes a complaint procedure for victims or observers of sexual harassment.
