It would be an unacceptable settlement to have the worker moved to a different work area. This would be punishing the worker, not the foreman. The union steward should make sure that other workers are supporting the worker who was being harassed. That worker should not have to stand alone against the harassment. Cming to work is often stressful enough.
Racial harassment is wrong, both morally and legally.
It is in violation of the union s policy and principles. The union must tell any member who is racially harassing another member that they must stop immediately or they will be disciplined. If the worker won t listen to the steward, then a group of workers should try to talk sense to the person. If the member does not stop, management must be notified so action can be taken. Remember, although no union person likes to turn in another union person to management, the union has a legal obligation to stop racial harassment once we know it is going on.
