What can happen if a supervisor does not take the employee’s complaint of harassment seriously?
A supervisor places the company in jeopardy. Ignoring the problem may be construed as an admission that the company intentionally failed to act. Supervisors should take any comments or statements of harassment seriously, no matter how casual, and report the incident to management so that a prompt and thorough investigation can be conducted.
