Media Quotes John Alan Doran Advising H.R. to Not Be So Quick To Fire Employees Based on Allegations

December 3, 2017 – The Journal Gazette and Small Business Trends quotes Sherman & Howard’s labor and employment law attorney, John Alan Doran, in the articles advising Human Resources to not be so quick to fire employees based on harassment allegations.

With the alarming number of harassment claims continuing to grow, no industry seems to be left untouched with the most disconcerting when involving those in leadership. “The #metoo movement is growing daily, as high-profile celebrities, politicians, and leaders of industry get called out by alleged victims,” Doran said. “It’s critically important for employers to react, but not overreact, to the movement.”
