Case Study Three:

Hands Off

Does it matter that some employees are okay with the massages?

The correct answer is NO

Inappropriate conduct, even if it is tolerated by some employees, should never be allowed to take root and fester in the workplace. By reporting inappropriate conduct at the onset, management will be able to immediately address the behavior and help prevent incidents like these from occurring. Also, touching anyone in a sexual nature is very serious and does not need to be repetitive to constitute sexual harassment.
