After Arbitration, Many Accused Harassers Return to Work

Posted on November 18, 2019 by curata

New research from Michigan State University revealed that almost half of accused harassers can go back to work when disputes are settled by arbitrators – or third-parties who resolve disputes.

The findings, published by the Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal, examine the outcomes of arbitration awards involving harassers, as well as provide insight into whether arbitration is the best solution to addressing workplace harassment.

Only 52% of the cases upheld the punishment of getting fired. In 13% of cases, the accused harassers were allowed back to work without any punishment. In the other cases, 12% could come back to work with no back pay; 20% of the cases reduced the discipline to a suspension and 2% were reduced to a warning.
