The applicant alleged discrimination in employment on the basis of sex and sexual solicitation after the personal respondent, her employer, sexually assaulted her.
The personal respondent was previously convicted of sexual assault for the same incident, and the Tribunal accepted those findings of fact.
The Tribunal found the conduct constituted sexual harassment and solicitation under the Human Rights Code.
The applicant was awarded $18,000 for injury to dignity, feelings, and self-respect, and $11,930 for lost wages, having reasonably mitigated her damages.
The corporate respondent was also ordered to develop a sexual harassment policy.
