Court Case
In a court case involving 15 women, the CEO of Del Laboratories of Farmingdale, N.Y, who occupied the most powerful position in the company, sought sexual favors in return for job benefits or opportunities, either by making promises to the women he harassed or by threatening them with unfavorable conditions if they refused his advancements.
The case also contains hostile work environment issues, as well as, retaliation.
Award: $1,185,000 in monetary relief
