Yes, when a person is discussing a sexual harassment complaint they should always review the case objectively.
Explain the sexual harassment complaint process to the complainant, including the steps that will be taken and the investigation process. Review the case objectively by listening to the complainant's account without judgment, gathering relevant information, and ensuring confidentiality throughout the process.
Develop an internal complaint process that ensures confidentially and that has multiple access points, not just to the employee's supervisor. Identify management-level personnel of both sexes that are available to those who wish to complain.
Yes. Any person committing acts of sexual harassment or allowing them to continue or retaliating against a person who made a harassment complaint may be held personally liable. The company is not always the one that is responsible. In many cases a person who sexually harasses another is held liable while the company is not if the company can prove it acted promptly and appropriately to stop the harassment once the situation became known.
Never, because are clueless and spineless and won't back you up
You should not castigate any client because of his complaint or comment. It is good to adopt the customer is always right mentality.
Workplace harassment is a serious violation of the law and should be brought to the attention of a supervisor. If it continues, one should document it to the best of one's ability, noting dates, times, offensive activities, and any other parties present, all of which will be of use if you take legal action.
First, complain about your supervisor's actions to your human resources department or his boss or even the police. Second, get medical attention especially if you suffered an injury after your supervisor hit you. If your employer failed to act on your complaint or you even experienced retaliation from your supervisor (harassment, demotion, or even termination), you should file a lawsuit against him as soon as possible and seek the services of an employment attorney. File charges immediately and look for other work. In addition to calling the police, you may wish to speak an attorney. Do this right away if you plan on doing it.
I reworded you question. I hope I got the jist of it OK. I would say certainly yes! If your company protects this jerk they are doing wrong. I can't say if OSHA would have any jurisdiction. But your company's supervisors should be able to be trusted with an anonomyous complaint and if not, they are in the wrong job.
File harrasment charges, and if that doesnt work, a restraining order. * If it is occurring at work the male should notify a supervisor and file a formal complaint. If it is in a personal venue the only option is to consider civil suit. Restraining/no contact orders are not legal instruments that can be used when the issue is sexual harassment unless there is also a documented threat or act of physical violence.
