Third-party harassment costs employer $30,000, by Sharon B. Bauman, Alan M. King, Stanley W. Levy and Andrew L. Satenberg, Manatt Phelps & Phillips LLP
Why it matters: Employers, take note: harassment in the workplace can be committed not just by supervisors and coworkers, but by third parties such as customers, patients, clients, delivery people, or repair workers. The settlement in the Ross case (EEOC v. Southwest Virginia Community Health System) should remind employers that regardless of the source, sexual harassment cannot be tolerated in the workplace – or liability may result.
