Lafayette College, of Pennsylvania, has agreed to pay $1 million and provide annual training to supervisors regarding sexual harassment following a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by the U.s. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

The suit was filed on behalf of a number of women in the Easton school’s public safety department who reported being the target of lewd comments, pornographic display, and groping from a supervisor.

One employee was so intimidated and disgusted with the treatment that she quit, losing her sole source of income.

While the settlement does not undo the damage wrought by the inappropriate behavior of their supervisor, it does help assuage the mental anguish and lost wages experienced by these women. If you have been the victim of sexual harassment from a superior in the work place, do not be afraid to contact the San Antonio sexual harassment attorneys of Melton & Kumler, LLP, at 800.681.6932.
