Law/531 ‒ Week 4 Quiz
In a hostile work environment sexual harassment claim, the employer will have a successful
defense if the employer can show which of the following?
The employer took reasonable care to prevent or correct the conduct and the
employee did not take advantage of corrective or preventive opportunities of the
employer to remedy the situation.
The employee stands to personally gain if the persons engaging in the sexual harassment
are reprimanded regardless of whether or not the employer did anything to remedy the
situation or take corrective action.
The employee was offended by conduct in the workplace and that the employer in good
faith did not consider the conduct to be offensive and therefore did not seek to correct or
prevent it.
There were no adverse consequences to the employee’s work status, such as a demotion
or denied promotion, even though the employer did not proactively address the situation.
Page 550: Employers are not strictly liable for the sexual harassment of their employees. An
employer may raise an affirmative defense against liability by proving two elements:
1. The employer exercised reasonable care to prevent, and promptly correct, any sexual
harassing behavior.
2. The plaintiff-employee unreasonably failed to take advantage of any preventive or
corrective opportunities provided by the employer or to otherwise avoid harm.
Which of the following statements is true about workers’ compensation?
The employee must decide whether to seek a workers’ compensation payment or file an
ordinary lawsuit against the employer.
The employer can avoid liability if the injured employee was contributorily negligent in
causing the injury.
The employer is strictly liable for employment-related injuries, and the claim is filed
through an administrative procedure rather than an ordinary lawsuit.
If the employee is dissatisfied with the amount received under the workers’ compensation
system, the employee generally then can file an ordinary lawsuit.
