While some groups didn't like the limitations placed in the bill, the fact is, it was a bill. If this bill is like other civil rights bills, it is probably just the beginning. It's a fact, when an employee is being harassed in the workplace, no work is being conducted. The person doing the harassing is not working, the person being harassed is not working and the people around them are also affected. The answer, in most instances, though we may not wish to address it, is that the person doing the harassing doesn't feel that top management cares one way or the other about what he or she does as long as the work gets done.
Top management establishes the environment that employees work in.
The answer is obvious, not very much and many managers and employees will respond accordingly. They will respond this way to every policy top management gives lip service to. One sure way to open yourself up to all kinds of problems is to schedule company functions where alcohol is served and spouses are not invited. This invites trouble you do not need and can result in charges of sexual harassment if the function is not closely monitored. Regardless of your political persuasion, business came out of the eighties with a poor image.
