This incident took place in 2001. So only eight years ago. So not the 1960s. And the company did have a policy against this type of harassment... they just didn't enforce it. Keeping that contract and not bothering to find a replacement for the harasser were more important than following their own guidelines. You seem to vest a lot of trust into management that I just haven't seen. "Upper management are good people... they would never go against internal company policy". You need some way of holding their feet to the fire.
