There is much confusion as to whether or not an employer is legally required to follow policies in its personnel policy manual. Generally, personnel policies are treated as unilateral expressions of employer practices that the employer is not legally bound to follow.
There is a popular misconception than any sexual statement or conduct in the workplace is sexual harassment. However, if the statements or conduct would not be considered offensive to a reasonable person, they will not constitute sexual harassment.
