The Supreme Court Ruling on Workplace Harassment That Got Buried

July 17, 2013 Black Truth News Community News, Politics, Recent Posts

Goss Graves, from her position as an advocate for women in the workplace, agreed with Ginsburg’s assessment. “If there’s someone who is abusing that power, wielding their power to make their subordinates’ lives horrible in a way to aid and assist in their harassment, the idea that the company isn’t liable for that and treats that person as just an average co-worker makes no sense,” she said.

The Vance decision is one of many ways the Court has recalibrated–often restricting–its approach to employee rights in harassment or discrimination cases in recent years.

Still, the new definition won’t make it impossible to bring forward new employment harassment cases. Cato Institute’s Overlaywered blog argued that while the definition of supervisor may have become narrowed for bringing a “vicarious harassment” case–i.e., a case claiming the company is liable for the actions of the supervisor–employees can still bring forward cases under a negligence claim for failing to stop harassment by a co-worker.
