Criticizing sexual harassment law is not sexual harassment, not even a "hostile work environment" violation.
On the other hand, employees criticizing the company for not sufficiently punishing sexual harassment is exactly the kind of evidence you're talking about.
- shadowgovt 6y agoemployees criticizing the company for not sufficiently punishing sexual harassment are protected by whistleblower law. Employees trying to build an Orwellian counter-story that punishing sexual harassment as the law requires creates a hostile work environment are treading on thin ice. Very easy to misinterpret that; I wouldn't commit it to discoverable media.
- anonunivgrad 6y agoSexual harassment law does not prohibit the criticism of sexual harassment law. Any district judge who tried to enforce it that way would almost certainly find himself overturned on appeal. You are simply wrong about that. You are required to follow your legal obligations in America but you are not required to like them or to not complain about them.
- shadowgovt 6y agoIt probably depends significantly on the criticism. "sexual harassment law is bad because women don't deserve protection" probably creates a hostile work environment. In general, I'd consider it a thin ice category for discussion inside the company in written format.
