Effective sexual harassment policies: unexpected lessons from Jacksonville Shipyards

Although many employers recognize the need for an effective sexual harassment policy, they have received only limited guidance from the EEOC and the courts on how to draft and implement one.

This article suggests that employers should consider adopting similar policies to better protect themselves from liability for sexual harassment.
