Employee lawsuits are expensive. Juries tend to sympathize with employees and award damages in the millions. Clearly, this can be devastating to the employer. 

In most cases, the underlying reason for employee lawsuits is that a manager or supervisor either caused the problem or could have prevented it. Actions by managers and supervisors that can result in litigation include:

·                  Saying the wrong thing or asking the wrong questions

·                  Treating employees unfairly

·                  Humiliating, harassing, or retaliating, or

·                  Doing nothing when action should have been taken
