Sexual harassment is also words.

Why the defensiveness?

Then my statement would also be true.

I’m just following your logic.

You’re saying a law that protects women will make employers hire fewer women.

So you’re saying sexual harassment law has that effect then? Do you have data on that?

So what’s your solution instead?

That’s already happening.

Most people aren’t in a union. If you’d like to read about what’s happening, join the subreddit and read up about it.

Sounds like a fear-based response. Take care.

That is included in the proposed legislation.

No, that’s actually how anti-discrimination law started.

What if the abuse has a discriminatory impact, but you can’t prove discriminatory intent that the courts now call for?

They both involve abusive mistreatment of employees.

That’s illogical

So with that logic, you don’t support anti-discrimination law?

Tell that to a therapist.

Employers are not explicitly liable for the psychological harm of their employees, nor do they want to be. Employers choose to avoid a perceived threat of liability over human well-being.

Good point about the rest of the people. Thank you.

We don't have any evidence there were other issues leading up to his breaking point, though. That's a myth that there must be preexisting issues when abuse leads to suicide.

The point is the damage abuse at work does, especially when employers do nothing.
