Chapter 9 Sexual Harassment ©2019
McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. Authorized only for instructor use in the classroom. No reproduction or further distribution permitted without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education.
2.
9-2 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Learning
Objectives 1 • Discuss the background leading up to sexual harassment as a workplace issue. • Explain quid pro quo sexual harassment and give the requirements for making a case. • Explain hostile environment sexual harassment and give the requirements for making a case. • List and explain employer defenses to sexual harassment claims.
3.
9-3 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Learning
Objectives 2 • Define the reasonable victim standard and how and why it is used in sexual harassment cases. • Differentiate the sex requirement and antifemale animus in sexual harassment actions. • Explain employer liability for various types of sexual harassment claims. • Describe proactive and corrective actions an employer can take to prevent or lessen liability.
4.
9-4 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Introduction Sexual
harassment in the workplace occurs more frequently than many realize. • Results in loss of time, productivity, and money to businesses and negative effect on personal lives. Sexual harassment class action trials are rarely litigated. • Also called “a white buffalo.”
5.
9-5 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Introduction/Major
Developments U.S. Supreme Court did not hear its first sexual harassment case until 1986. Anita Hill’s 1991 testimony against Clarence Thomas. • Affected workplace environment. • Led to increase in complaints filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) after the hearings.
6.
9-6 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Is
It a Big Deal? 1 Study by the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board in 1987. • 42 percent of federal employees have reported sexual harassment. Survey by Working Woman magazine of 160 of the Fortune 500 companies. • Nearly 40 percent had received at least one sexual harassment complaint in the previous 12 months.
7.
9-7 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Is
It a Big Deal? 2 New York Times poll. • 4 out of every 10 women have experienced sexual harassment. National Law Journal. • 60 percent of female attorneys have experienced sexual harassment. Parade Magazine poll. • 70 percent of women serving in the military and 50 percent of the women who worked in congressional offices on Capitol Hill have been sexually harassed.
8.
9-8 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Where
Do Sexual Harassment Considerations Leave the Employer? Consensual relationships are not forbidden under the law. Employees may date consistent with company policy. Becomes a problem when: • Activity directed toward an employee is unwelcome. • Terms or conditions different for one gender than are imposed.
9.
9-9 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Sexual
Harassment in General Quid pro quo sexual harassment and Hostile environment sexual harassment. • Distinction between the two terms need not be rigid according to the U.S. Supreme Court. Most sexual harassment takes place between males and females. • Male as the harasser and the female as the harassee. • Gender of the harasser need not be male and the gender of the parties does not matter. • Males can be sexually harassed also.
10.
9-10 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Quid
Pro Quo Sexual Harassment Quid pro quo sexual harassment: Harasser requests sexual activity from the harassee in exchange for workplace benefits. • More obvious type of sexual harassment and is not generally difficult to recognize. Cases: Ball State University v. Vance, Texas Southwestern Medical Center v. Nassar.
11.
9-11 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Hostile
Environment Sexual Harassment Hostile environment sexual harassment. • Harasser creates an abusive, offensive, or intimidating environment for the harassee. • Offensive work environment to which one gender is subjected but not the other. Case: Meritor Savings Bank, FSB v. Vinson.
12.
9-12 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Comparison
between Quid Pro Quo and Hostile Environment Sexual Harassment Quid Pro Quo Sexual Harassment • Workplace benefit promised, given to, or withheld from harasser by harasser. • In exchange for sexual activity by harassee. • Generally accompanied by a paper trail. Hostile Environment Sexual Harassment Activity by harasser, toward harassee that. • Is unwanted by the harassee. • Is based on harassee’s gender. • Creates for harassee a hostile or abusive work environment. • Unreasonably interferes with harassee’s ability to do his or her job. • Is sufficiently severe and/or pervasive. • Affects a term or condition of harassee’s employment.
13.
9-13 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Unwelcome
Activity Unwanted activity by the harasser is the basis of hostile environment sexual harassment actions. • Harasser’s actions can be direct or indirect. • Evidence that the activity is unwelcome can also be direct or indirect. • Scenario 3. Brings up the question of unwelcomeness parameters.
14.
9-14 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Severe
and Pervasive Requirement Severe and/or pervasive activity: Harassing activity that is more than an occasional act or is so serious that it is the basis for liability. • The more frequent or serious the occurrences, the more likely it is that the severe and/or pervasive requirement will be met. U.S. Supreme Court decision. • Sexual harassment claims do not require findings of severe psychological harm to be actionable.
15.
9-15 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Perspective
Used to Determine Severity 1 Reasonable person standard: Viewing the harassing activity from the perspective of a reasonable person. • Harassing activity includes gender-specific sociological, cultural, and other factors. Reasonable victim standard: Viewing the harassing activity from the perspective of a reasonable person in society at large. • Generally tends to be the male view.
16.
9-16 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Perspective
Used to Determine Severity 2 EEOC issued a policy statement. • Required that the victim’s perspective also must be considered so as not to perpetuate stereotypes. • Notion was labeled the “reasonable woman” or reasonable victim standard. U.S. Supreme Court decision on Oncale v. Sundowner Offshore Services, Inc.: • “The objective severity of harassment should be judged from the perspective of a reasonable person in the plaintiff’s position.”
17.
9-17 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. “Sexual”
Requirement Explained • Need not involve sex, requests for sexual activity, sexual comments, or other similar activity. • Antifemale animus: Negative feelings about women and/or their ability to perform jobs or functions, usually manifested by negative language and actions.
18.
9-18 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Employer
Liability for Sexual Harassment 1 Supervisor toward Employee (Tangible Employment Action). • Generally quid pro quo sexual harassment. • Employers are strictly liable for the tangible acts of their supervisors. • Presence of a paper trail, which gives employers a measure of control in monitoring for actions.
19.
9-19 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Employer
Liability for Sexual Harassment 2 Supervisor toward Employee (No Tangible Employment Action). • Employer is not strictly liable. • Ellerth/Farragher defense: Employer had a reasonable sexual harassment policy in place; harassed employee unreasonably failed to use it. • Case: Burlington Industries, Inc. v. Ellerth.
20.
9-20 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Employer
Liability for Sexual Harassment 3 Coworker harassment or third-party harassment of employee. • The harasser and harassee are on the same level. • Harasser is not employed by the employer (e.g., a client). • Employer is liable if the acts of harassment were known, yet no corrective action was taken. • Case: Farragher v. City of Boca Raton.
21.
9-21 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Determining
the Truth of Allegations The EEOC’s Policy Guidance on Harassment. • Inherent plausibility. • Demeanor. • Motive to falsify. • Corroboration. • Past record. Employees should be involved only on a “need to know” basis.
22.
9-22 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Retaliation
and Employee Privacy On reporting the sexual harassment, the alleged harasser must be told of the complaint for the employer to effectively address it. • Retaliation will not be tolerated. • Law has separate retaliation provisions. In 2016, retaliation claims were the number one claim reported.
23.
9-23 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Corrective
Action Employers must take “immediate and appropriate corrective action.” The remedy should: • Stop the harassment. • Not be out of proportion to the act. • Not have the effect of punishing the harassee.
24.
9-24 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Damages
and Jury Trials Civil Rights Act of 1991. Employees suing for sexual harassment can: • Ask for up to $300,000 in compensatory or punitive damages and unlimited medical damages. • Request a jury trial. EEOC has institutionalized the use of alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
25.
9-25 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Tort
and Criminal Liability Tort actions • Assault – Intentionally putting the victim in fear or apprehension of unwanted touching. • Battery – Intentional unpermitted bodily touching. • Intentional infliction of emotional distress. • False imprisonment. • Intentional interference with contractual relations. Action could form the basis of criminal prosecution for criminal assault, battery, and rape. Case: Miller v. Washington Workplace.
26.
9-26 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Management
Tips 1 • Adopt an anti-sexual harassment policy. • Take a top-down approach to deter sexual harassment. • Create and disseminate information about an effective reporting mechanism for harasses. • Consistently remind employees of the policy. • Provide employees with training and/or information that helps them to recognize sexual harassment.
27.
9-27 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Management
Tips 2 • Ensure that reported incidents of sexual harassment are taken seriously. • Ensure that the training employees receive is effective, interactive, and engaging. • Create an environment where sexual harassment is not tolerated. • Promptly investigate all sexual harassment claims.
28.
9-28 ©2019 McGraw-Hill Education. Management
