What are some examples of “Quid Pro Quo” harassment?
A. Because employee benefits-raises, promotions, better working hours, etc., are directly inked to compliance with sexual advances, only someone in a supervisory capacity (with the authority to grant such benefits) can engage in Quid Pro Quo harassment. For example, a supervisor may promise an employee a raise if she goes on a date with him, or a manager may tell an employee she will fire him if he does not go to bed with her.
