Alleged Sexual Harassment Offenses
Receivables Outsourcing, a well-known collection agency, has faced serious allegations involving alleged sexual harassment offenses within its workplace. In a notable case, an employee complained that a fellow employee, Mark Blackwell, engaged in a pattern of harassing conduct over a six-week period. The alleged harassment occurred both inside and outside the workplace, with the alleged harasser telling the employee she “smelled good” and repeatedly asking her out, despite her clear refusal and her statement that she did not mix business with pleasure.
The situation escalated when the alleged harasser joined a conversation and made sexually suggestive remarks about the employee’s body, contributing to an abusive working environment. The final incident occurred on a Friday as employees were clocking out. At a traffic light, the alleged harasser pulled up alongside the employee’s car and called her a “strawberry”—a derogatory slang term for a woman selling sexual favors, often in exchange for crack cocaine or money to buy crack cocaine. He then offered her $10 to perform a sex act, a blatant example of actual propositioning that, while occurring outside of work hours, was directly related to their workplace relationship.
The employee testified that this harassing conduct was unwelcome, based on sex, and sufficiently severe to create an illegal hostile work environment. She maintains that being called a “strawberry” and being offered money for sexual favors by a fellow employee constituted sexual harassment and sex discrimination, fundamentally affecting the terms and conditions of her employment. Despite presenting evidence of the alleged harassment, the trial court granted summary judgment in favor of Receivables Outsourcing, finding the conduct insufficient to establish a hostile work environment under Title VII. The employee appealed, arguing that genuine issues of fact remained regarding whether the harassing conduct was sufficiently severe and pervasive.
The Better Business Bureau (BBB) has documented complaints against Receivables Outsourcing, underscoring the importance of fair debt collection practices and the need for employers to address allegations of unlawful discriminatory practices. In this case, the employee’s experience with the company lawyer—who was unresponsive and did not engage when she tried to speak—highlights how supervisory personnel can sometimes fail to address serious allegations. Although the manager immediately returned her call and promised corrective action, the employee was subsequently dismissed during her probationary period for walking off the job, raising further questions about the company’s response to her complaint.
The court noted that not all workplace conduct described as harassment rises to the level of an unlawful discriminatory practice, but also recognized that a single act of actual propositioning, especially when it involves a sex act and is accompanied by derogatory language, can create a hostile work environment. This case serves as a reminder that employers must take all allegations of sexual harassment seriously, ensure that policies and procedures are in place to address such complaints, and take prompt corrective action to prevent further incidents. For employees, it underscores the importance of reporting harassment and understanding their rights under fair debt collection and employment laws.
