Data centers, crypto mines, and electrifying freight now press
When a survivor’s disclosure of sexual assault happens far from the office yet an employer’s response shapes the person’s job, the forum for the fallout is increasingly moving from arbitration to court, and a recent federal ruling made that shift hard to ignore.

In a bustling HVAC repair office in upstate New York, a technician’s deeply held faith collided with company policy, sparking a legal battle that has captured national attention and raised critical questions about workplace norms.
