There harassment consited of physical and verbal harassment on a daily basis by a superior. When I reported the conduct, I was literally laughed at, and this was the case for several other women in the company.
The answer lies in this and your previous post.
I can call someone telling me to answer the phone, keep my voice down (I have a very deep resonating voice) or someone telling me I can't wear shorts into the office (which I own by the way) harrassment. But calling it that and it actually being so is not always a match.
You have provided absolutely no facts for which the company can be held legally or financially liable under the harassment guidelines. All you have said is that "the harassment consisted of physical and verbal harassment..."
If you want the company (or this forum) to take you seriously, then stop talking in generalities and learn specifics.
Did your supervisor put his hand down your pants?
Did your supervisor ask to suck your nipples?
Did your supervisor say any of the following:
(if you are black)
"Go to the store and get me some watermelon"
(if you are hispanic)
"I like my meat a little brown"
(If you are Pamela Anderson)
"Did you get knee burn on the boat?"
(If you are Greek)
"Want to see my backdoor?"
Now do you get the picture?
