Option C is just plain wrong. A million-dollar award for a woman? In those days? Yeah, right. Somebody needs to lay off the daydreaming.

I wonder if the person who wrote this question was harassed by a bunch of sunburned offshore workers. Just a thought.

As a human resource professional, I found the Oncale case fascinating. It helped expand the definition of sexual harassment and set an important precedent.

I can't believe Option B is even an option. A fictitious harassment case? That's just absurd. This exam really needs to up its game.

Option D is the correct answer. The Oncale v. Sundowner Offshore Service, Inc. case was unique because it involved a man being sexually harassed by other men, which was quite rare at the time.

I believe the case is important for HR professionals to study because it shows that sexual harassment can happen to anyone, regardless of gender.

I agree with Tamra, it's unique because it's not the typical scenario of a woman being harassed by a man.
