Microsoft Intern’s Rape Claim Highlights Struggle to Combat Sex Discrimination

But why the flying fuck would Microsoft hesitate to ensure the victim had absolutely no chance of encountering a dude accused of raping her in her place of work. Isn't being safe at work like the single most important facet of an employer's responsibility to their employee? Their campus is huge, both of them were interns that could have easily been placed on different projects, scheduled different hours, etc. And in the face of all these cultural accusations, an undeniably dangerous circumstances arises and, what was the quote, "taken practical steps"? As in, some middling HR manager practically deeply nodded their head, wrote an email, and forgot about it? Honestly tech seems to grow so fast that basic sensibilities like common sensible risk assessment flies out the window where ever some executive hasn't explicitly defined what to do.
