True. And it never will be like that. But if you really want to protect yourself, you should do everything you can not to get involved.
Managers can get in trouble if they know stuff is going on and don't actively discourage it.
I actually had a situation where an employee of mine was making off color remarks and a woman on the crew took offense. I gave him a verbal warning and he didn't stop. I gave him a written warning in his file and the remarks stopped. Then another woman said he was looking at scantily clad women on the internet. Due to some circumstances I won't get into, I had at least some doubts about that one, but given his previous record, I had no recourse but to let him go.
I'm glad
he didn't decide to sue.
Being a manager in that kind of situation isn't a good place to be.
