\nThe more Schroeder declined sharing anything beyond a work relationship with McKeag, the worse his work misconduct became. It becomes difficult to perform work duties and escape workplace sexual harassment simultaneously. If you find yourself trying to balance the two, seek a sexual harassment lawyer to alleviate some of the stress legally.
\nOn one occasion, McKeag informed Schroeder that she was the \u201cobject of his obsession.\u201d As his alleged \u201cobject\u201d continued to reject him, McKeag engaged in some violent actions at work. The sexual harassment lawsuit revealed McKeag \u201cpunched walls and threw things.\u201d He also destroyed a phone by throwing it against the wall.
\nSchroeder claims he would block the entrance to the doorway to prevent her from leaving and he would scream. McKeag\u2019s actions at work grew worse, and when Schroeder reported the intolerable behavior and sexual harassment she was subjected to, management failed to investigate her sexual harassment claims or take action against McKeag on her behalf.<\/p>\nOther Victims of McKeag’s Actions released Sexual Harassment Allegations<\/h2>\n
\nAllegations regarding McKeag\u2019s alleged behavior continued to surface. The Veteran Home employees including Schroeder reported McKeag was an explosive individual that should be deemed hazardous to the workplace. Another employee alleged McKeag sent her life-threatening text messages instructing her to keep quiet about his actions \u201cif she knew what was good for her.\u201d She also alleged that he said he would bring a firearm to work to \u201ctake some motherf——\u201c out. The employees were not only battling sexual harassment, they were dealing with an alleged maniac that would verbally express the harm he would bring to work.
\nA great deal of employees offered to quit if McKeag wasn\u2019t terminated or removed from the workplace. His presence put employees and residents at risk, and employees refused to be a victim of violence. Schroeder claims she did her best to prevent contact with McKeag. She even filed a restraining order against him and an immeasurable amount of official reports regarding her sexual harassment experience. Management continued to refrain from putting a stop the chaos. According to management, the restraining order couldn\u2019t be enforced based on hearsay.<\/p>\nMinnesota Department of Veterans Affairs Responds<\/h2>\n
\nAccording to the Commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs, there is a zero-tolerance policy for all forms of harassment, and harassment claims are allegedly \u201ctaken seriously.\u201d According to Schroeder\u2019s sexual harassment lawsuit, the harassment policy was not enforced during Schroeder\u2019s experience with sexual harassment and violence. Public court records revealed McKeag has a violent history. In truth, the employer and the zero-tolerance harassment policy did not protect the employees at the Veterans Home.<\/p>\nAbogado de acoso sexual<\/h2>\n
