You're smart enough not to make sexually offensive comments at work … and definitely know what constitutes inappropriate touching. But here's a news flash: if your employees don't – or if they ignore the rules – you are responsible.

Phil learned this shocking lesson the hard way. About two weeks after the annual company picnic, a female desk clerk sued him sexual harassment. The most shocking part? He didn't do the deed – his night manager, Tom, was the grope-happy perpetrator.

Turns out that Tom had gotten a little too friendly after getting "tipsy" at the picnic.

Unfortunately for Phil, the courts held him responsible! He and the hotel were named as parties to the lawsuit. And because he had turned down employment practices coverage, he was on his own when it came to paying expensive legal and court fees. By the time the case settled out of court, he had forked over a cool $37,214 … all out of pocket.

CONCLUSION: On average, it costs a minimum of $20,000 to defend yourself against a sexual harassment case – even if you personally are not at fault. Don't leave yourself vulnerable to bank-breaking lawsuits that your employees provoke.
