Short Scenario
An employee under your supervision walks into your office
and tells you he wants to discuss something with you in
confidence. He mentions that a female colleague has
continued to ask him out to dinner though he has repeatedly
declined her request; invited him over to her house so that he
can “get to know her better;” and touched his rear end on
several occasions but explain to him it was an accident. He
mentions that he doesn’t want anything to be done to the
colleague because he has handled the problems himself by
repeatedly making her aware that her actions are unwelcome.
He just wanted to vent.
• Federal laws
