Imagine you are the HR manager at a company, and an employee came to you upset because she felt a male co-worker had sexually harassed her by repeatedly asking her out on dates even after she said “no.” What would you do? Write a one (1) page paper in which you: Formulate the conversation you would have with the employee. Summarize the conversation you would have with the employee’s male co-worker, based on the concepts found in Chapter 2 of your textbook.
Answer:
Sexual harrasment at a workplace can be defined as a form of discrimination which includes any unwanted behavior, comment or conduct regarding sexual orientation.
As a HR manager, i would like to ask following questions to the employee in order to understand the level of harrasment. After knowing the answers, i can decide the action to be taken against that male co-worker.
The conversation is below:
Manager: Has your co-worker asked you for date by sending notes, letter or e-mails?
Employee: Mostly he asked verbally but two three times he has left a note on my table.
Manager: Did he ever stare you in a offensive manner?
Employee: Yes, he sometimes did it in that manner.
Manager: Was there any inappropriate touching or offensive comment from his end?
Employee: No, there wasn't any such kind of action from this side.
Now, I would like to ask few questions to that co-worker. The conversation is below:
Manager: Do you know the rules of the organization related to the harrassment at workplace?
Employee's male Co-worker: Yes, i have read them in the policies.
Manager: Then why you intentionally did all this?
Employee's male Co-Worker: I don't think i did it intentionally because i just liked her so i asked her for the date.
Manager: Do you what action organization can take against you in this respect?
Employee's male Co-worker: Yes, i know but i would like to apologize for the same and won't repeat it again.
Manager: In that case we need to talk to that employee, if she agreed upon that or she want organization to take a serious action against you.
The conversation ends here with both employees.
