Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Long-Term Care may be liable for Kit's conduct because as an employer, they have a duty to prevent discrimination and harassment in the workplace, and Kit's actions may be seen as a violation of this duty. Additionally, Kit could be individually liable for his discriminatory conduct. Nia cannot be held liable for refusing to cooperate with Kit's discriminatory plan, as it is her right to refuse to participate in illegal acts. The male employees also cannot be held liable as they were victims of discrimination.
