Question One
The scenario that has been described in this case study involving Midge Watson and
Susan Adams is definitely a kind of physical advancement without the consent of the concerned
person. Moreover, this is not a straight physical engagement. Rather this a same sex physical
engagement (Kabat-Farr and Cortina 2014). Therefore, the victimized person might not be a
lesbian person as the startled face of Susan suggests. Midge had developed the feeling previously
that something was not right with Susan in her behavior. In this context, the scenario of ethical
considerations of the same sex lesbian physical engagements would have to be considered
(Kabat-Farr and Cortina 2014). This is why it is a kind of sexual harassment at her workplace.
This is not at all an expected thing for Midge. The proposal for dancing might be considered as
something natural but the intentions of Susan were not good at all. Her greeting of Midge by
putting her arms around Midge is not at all acceptable. Any kind of body touching without
consent is a serious activity of sexual harassment.
Question Two
In this context, the company Best Fits Sporting Goods Manufacturing Company does
have a responsibility to provide a safety and security to all their employees irrespective of their
caste and gender (McDonald and Charlesworth 2016). Therefore, it must be said that employee
like Midge Watson does have a very honorable designation within the company but she had been
physically harassed by her female colleague Susan Adams. Her physical advances startled Midge
and she had been completely stunned. She was waiting for her boyfriend to accompany her for
dance but Susan had totally neglected this factor of her boyfriend. She was only thinking about
her pointy of view. The company should take it seriously and present this matter to their human
