Sexual assault after office party judged a work accident
A sexual assault that took place after a drunken office party has been judged a work accident by the Tribunal administratif du travail. Nothing’s said here about reparations to the victim or punishment for the alleged assailant.

No, this is just about her trying to get the therapy and, presumably, paid time off she was entitled to for a work injury. I read the decision, it all makes sense to me.

Essentially her argument is that this was caused by her company not taking proper care during a work event and it needs to be treated as a work injury
For what it’s worth, they let the contractor in question go shortly after she told them his name, it’s really about the amount of alcohol they provided and the lack of care in getting home afterwards. To note: the company was acquired and she was let go at that time, no one seems to claim that was retaliatory.
