In any other workplace, they’d be fired for costing their company $50,000 in damages and forcing it to provide widespread harassment training. Had a state agency decried any other workplace as “pervasively hostile” and a hotbed of sexual harassment, those responsible would be shown the door. Not, apparently, at UPS. Not only was the management found culpable of ignoring a long pattern of sexual harassment by one of its supervisors, but the company is resisting an order that it provide training to prevent it from happening again. “They just don’t get it,” said Tom Sobocinski of Oxford, a handler at the Shrewsbury warehouse. “The truth came out, and even now they’re fighting it.” Mr. Sobocinski knows a bit about fighting. A 23-year employee, he filed a complaint in 2004 with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination that accused a supervisor of sexual harassment and his managers of ignoring his complaints.
