What happens when you work with a creepy person? Under Georgia law, if this creep ends up harming someone, the employer is not liable under under a negligent retention claim. The Georgia Court of Appeals, in Cleveland v. Team RTR2, LLC, 359 Ga. App. 104, held that “hunches, impressions, and innuendo are insufficient to raise a question of fact” as to an employer’s constructive knowledge of that employee’s dangerous propensities. Id. at 110. If you work with a creepy co-worker, report them to the employer in writing. This might save someone’s life.
