From a Christian Science Article found on Diversity Spectrum’s website:

According to one study, 62 percent of state workers who complained of sexual harassment reported that they faced retaliation in the form of lowered job evaluations, denial of promotions, and being transferred or fired.

Based on this statistic, it’s no wonder that employees are fearful of speaking up about breaches in proper behavior.  Of course, if an employee files a complaint the law protects that employee from any retaliation.  But up until the Supreme Court’s recent decision, an employee was not protected from retaliation if they’d answered questions about harrassment but not filed an official complaint.
