You are a licensed paralegal with your own successful paralegal firm specializing in human rights law. You recently met with the manager of a retail electronics store who you are defending in a sexual harassment claim. One of the salespeople your client supervises alleges that your client sexually harassed them on the job by threatening to schedule them only for unprofitable daytime shifts on weekdays when they were unlikely to earn high sales commissions unless they went on a date with them. The employee consistently refused to go out on a date with your client, and has now made an application to the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal alleging sexual harassment. During your meeting with your client, they told you they “can’t believe this salesperson is kicking up such a fuss over being asked out on a date” when a few years ago they actually “slapped a former salesperson in the face” for refusing to go out with them. Based on the provided information, what are your obligations as a licensed paralegal regarding your client’s admission that they slapped a former employee for refusing to date them?
