EXAMINATION QUESTIONS.
,QUESTION 1
Ms. Eastwood was employed as an administrative assistant at Horizon Enterprises.
She claims that her supervisor, Mr. Oldman, subjected her to unwelcome conduct on
multiple occasions throughout the year 2023 which made her feel uncomfortable. The
conduct included remarks about the shape of her body, her “sexiness” and other
unsolicited romantic advances. The inappropriate behaviour persisted, and in
September 2023, she reached out to Ms. Daley, the company’s employee relations
specialist, to report Mr. Oldman’s conduct. Ms. Daley acts on behalf of Horizon
Enterprises over all employee relations matters. Despite her report, Ms. Daley made
no attempt to address her complaints. Instead, Ms. Daley told Ms. Eastwood that she
was overreacting, and that Mr. Oldman’s behaviour was just “boys being boys”.
Feeling very uncomfortable and unable to continue working with Mr. Oldman, Ms.
Eastwood tendered her resignation in November 2023.
Ms. Eastwood now seeks legal advice FROM YOU on how to proceed in light of these
events.
With reference to legislation and case law, analyse Ms. Eastwood’s legal
situation and advise on any possible remedy she may have against her former
employer, Horizon Enterprises.
