The Director of Human Resources at a Texas based company with five thousand employees receives a bad performance review and subsequently resigns. Upon her departure it is discovered that she directed the IT Department to erase her entire hard drive – which they did, no questions asked. Her hard drive contained all allegations, complaints and subsequent responses made by the company for the past six years. Now the company’s ability to successfully launch a Faragher/Ellerth defense in any of the complaints made in the last six years is severely compromised.A top manager in a New York based company has had shortfalls in his budget. The losses are small, a few hundred dollars here and there every few weeks. However, an audit reveals that these shortfalls have cumulated in over $200,000 in losses over the past three years. Upon investigation, it is discovered that employees under this manager have been told to hide money and compromise business policies in money handling.
