I do. Stop projecting about "not getting it".

I fully explained the position, and why your original example falls through.

No you dont get it, its not a projection. Some people dont want to deal with police complaint. If you dont understand that you will never get it.

It's IMAX-level projection.

>Some people dont want to deal with police complaint.

And if they don't want to, it's not the companies place to babysit and play judge and jury.

>If you dont understand that you will never get it.

If you don't understand that it's not the company's place to play the judicial branch (and may be illegal for them to), then you'll never get it.

It is by definition the wrong thing to do.

It's absolutely the companies enforceable legal obligation to effectively prevent (including terminating ongoing) sexual harassment even if there is no crime, crime report, or criminal law enforcement action.

Sexual harassment overlaps with a variety of crimes, but it doesn't require a crime, and the employer is civilly liable for it no matter if the individual causing the problem has committed or been investigated for a crime or not.

yes it, why do you support people who abuse, why should they still be kept in the company if the evidence is credible?

So does it mean now you understood why some people dont want file a police complaint?

>yes it, why do you support people who abuse

I don't, and neither should the company, which is why they should call the police.

>why should they still be kept in the company if the evidence is credible?

Company is free to fire criminals if they want, no issues there. Many don't hire criminals to begin with, since your criminal history is public.

>So does it mean now you understood why some people dont want file a police complaint?

This is non-sense. If you're the victim of a crime, report the crime to the police.

Sexual harassment generally is not a crime (though it overlaps with some crimes), and even if there is a crime involved the police and public prosecutor are under no obligation to do anything about it.

The employer, however, is under an enforceable legal obligation to do something about harassment.

They are not yet criminals though.

> If you're the victim of a crime, report the crime to the police.

and you still dont get it.
