> Sexual harassment is the name for a particular category of unlawful behavior by an employer to an employee. Indeed - which was my point. It's not necessarily the perpetrator who's held legally accountable. It's the organization. So, from a legal stand point. The perpetrator may not be breaking the law, the organization may. Thus, most sexual harassment by an individual is not in itself illegal. It's in the context of their place of employment. This is semantics, but plays a large impact as to why (for instance) employees are paid to leave as opposed to fired.
