Sexual Harassment in the workplace

Complainant alleged she was retaliated against for complaining of sexual harassment. Complainant reported a male contractor subjected her to both inappropriate sexual comments and inappropriate touching. When Complainant reported the harassment, she was told it would be addressed, but the harassment continued. Complainant reported the ongoing behavior to Respondent’s Human Resources who then moved her to an office position. A Resolution Conference was facilitated, and the parties entered a Pre-Determination Settlement Agreement on December 26, 2023, with Respondent compensating Complainant $4,000.00. On or around January 8, 2024, the Commission was notified that all terms of the agreement have been met, and a closing order was issued.
