In a recent case won by Hewlett-Packard in Corvallis, Oregon, the court held that Ms. Cleese was not sexually harassed by Mr. Ciarla. On another occasion, Ciarla commented that women in the lab area were inferior. All employees should be trained in what is harassment both under the law and under company policy. Targets of harassment should be encouraged to speak up, and where harassment has occurred, the offender should be appropriately disciplined.
