But they don’t like being harrassed or touched by another employee.

Sorry they don't "like" it. Not "liking" something isn't a cause to involve the federal government. And, no, it isn't easy to get another job, but that isn't a reason to involve the government, either.

Now, if the touching is sexual, there are laws to deal with assault.

No one should be harrassed on the job. Harrassment means constant unwanted attention; not one dumb joke by a crude guy. And, of course, I don’t mean a tap on the shoulder - I mean a sexual or violent physical encounter. Sorry, but it DOES happen in the workforce.

If employers dealt with these situations properly, no one would have to go to the police or “government.” The problem with employers is that they like to bury the dirt rather than expose it.
