Global Trade Enterprises has a policy statement making it clear that it does not tolerate sexual harassment. It set up an employee hotline for reporting harassment. When it received complaints about one of the maintenance workers, the company took action and corrected the problem immediately. However, two months later, it is receiving more complaints, this time about a supervisor on the night shift. What else should Global Trade do to keep the workplace free from sexual harassment?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Global Trade Enterprises should provide anti-harassment training to all employees to prevent sexual harassment in the future. This will help employees to learn how to identify and respond appropriately to inappropriate workplace behavior before it becomes a bigger problem. It is always better to be proactive rather than reactive in the case of preventing sexual harassment. Therefore, option D is the best choice. Options A, B, and E do not address the root cause of the issue and may even discourage employees from reporting harassment. Filing a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission may be necessary if the company's internal procedures cannot address the issue, but it should not be the first action taken.
