Case study:

Cameo Industries desired the workplace free from all forms of sexual harassment. Accordingly, Cameo developed guidelines for its workers which specifically forbade sexual harassment. The guidelines gave instances of conduct that wouldn’t be tolerated, provided penalties, designated a company official as the proper person to whom complaints must be brought, investigated complaints thoroughly, and maintained an educational policy designed to remind employees of policy.

Maureen made the complaint of sexual harassment charging her supervisor had demanded sexual favours. An investigation was made and charge was substantiated. The supervisor was warned not to continue this conduct, however it happened again. The supervisor was again issued a warning. Finally, Maureen brought a court action against the supervisor and Cameo. Cameo defended on ground that it had done all in its power to rectify the situation. Discuss.
