More U.N. Sex Scandals

The head of the U.N.’s Electoral Assistance Division is being accused of permitting or creating an “abusive” environment full of sexual innuendo and intimidation in a recent preliminary report commissioned by the U.N. Sounds like fairly standard hostile workplace environment claims, except the U.N. is not subject to U.S. sexual harassment laws. Indeed, it is unclear exactly what laws would govern such complaints, which is in a way unfair to the accused as well because they don’t exactly know what rules they are operating under.
