>(1) There is simply no agreement currently on what counts as harassment.
This is an absolutely fair observation.
>The situation has gotten so out of hand, that recording all employee interaction might indeed be the only way forward.
Yeah, I think something like bodycams is likely the most effective solution to the issue but then things get tricky for various industries, stuff like patient/client confidentiality laws, trade secrets, etc. Not to mention stuff like using the restroom, where sexual harassment could still take place.
Then audio-only wouldn't cover miming explicit actions.
It's certainly a problem with no easily actionable answer.
