How does South Carolina Law Prohibit Sexual Harassment?

The policies should at least include: contact information for the reporting of sexual harassment incidents, an outline of policies to be followed in filing a claim, and the remedies available when a claim successfully proven.

Furthermore, federal and South Carolina laws create specific agencies which are responsible for handling sexual harassment cases.
