Company sponsored holiday parties come with a risk that is often overlooked. The case below shows how costly this can be for employers and employees when not handled appropriately. Ms. Lesley Shiner sued the State University of New York (SUNY) for the events that occurred to her at the Christmas Party. After failing to have the case dismissed a settlement agreement was reached. With the proper proactive training and the appropriate steps afterward this employer could have mitigated their risks in a much better fashion and saved themselves a lot of money.
