Overview:
The expression “the writing on the wall” refers to a warning of bad times to come. In the case of this compelling narrative story, especially when that writing is sexual graffiti on the wall of a toilet stall, retaliating against a person who complained of sexual harassment by co-workers. That’s what leads off this forthright employee awareness-training program. Management fails to stop the offensive conduct or discipline the retaliation. What started as an internal complaint escalates into a very public class-action lawsuit. The writing on the wall is seized—hacked out of the toilet wall—as evidence. The serious consequences for all involved—harassers, supervisors, managers—will deliver a no-nonsense message to all employees: Juries and judges, government regulators, the media, and the public are more than ready to “throw the book” at sexual harassment. An important message delivered is that top management will not tolerate sexually offensive job-related conduct and will respond to complaints swiftly, fairly, and severely.
