While a company director engaged in conduct "likely to have amounted to sexual harassment" towards a female employee, a judge has dismissed a $1 million negligence claim against his business.
The former employee, who cannot be named for legal reasons, sued the real estate company Edson Group Pty Ltd in the ACT Supreme Court for personal injury damages.
She alleged its sole director, Eduardo Duran, sexually harassed her during her employment, and the company was negligent in failing to provide her with a safe workplace.
