Report Link Investigating Claims of Harassment.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - August 07, 2009 Your human resources director has brought you a tough one: one of your sales employees has complained that her Sales Manager harassed her sexually, and had made disparaging racial remarks about a customer. You're stunned because the manager has been a good performer, generating good numbers and seems like a real straight arrow guy. What do you do? Report Link Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don't: Terminating Accused Harasser Can Lead to Liability for "Sex Stereotyping"Littler Mendelson, P.C. - June 23, 2009 Most employers are well aware of their obligation to promptly and thoroughly investigate complaints of sexual harassment. Although the right to an adequate investigation is most commonly associated with the alleged victim, a recent decision by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals (covering New York, Connecticut, and Vermont) illustrates that an employer's failure to investigate can lead to claims by the accused harasser as well. Report Link When Even Doing It Right Leads To Trouble.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - November 07, 2007 A recent case involving a Texas dealership reminds us how careful a dealer and its managers must be when investigating a harassment complaint. Report Link Investigations Not To Be "Micro-Managed".Ogletree Deakins - June 15, 2007 The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals recently dismissed a sexual harassment lawsuit brought against an employer, stressing that federal courts should avoid second guessing or "micro-managing internal investigations."

Report Link Think "Big Picture" When Addressing Workplace Harassment (pdf).Vedder Price - April 29, 2005 A recent opinion of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Seventh Circuit illustrates the importance of investigating
