Grievance allowed; employer held liable for failing to investigate and address racial harassment in the workplace.
The grievor, a visible minority, alleged she was subjected to racial discrimination, harassment, and assault by her coworkers.
She reported these incidents to her manager and director, but the employer failed to conduct a meaningful investigation or take reasonable steps to address the poisoned work environment.
As a result of the workplace conflict, the grievor developed major depressive disorder and required a medical leave of absence.
The Grievance Settlement Board allowed the grievance, finding that the employer was willfully blind to the serious problems in the office and breached its duty to provide a safe and healthy work environment free from discrimination.
