Who and how will people be chosen? What legal issues must be taken into consideration? What is HR's role in this?

Case Study 3

A female supervisor asks her subordinate out to dinner. He refuses saying that he is in an exclusive relationship. The supervisor tries again later in the day and is told formally "no". Later that week the supervisor gives the employee an unscheduled performance evaluation with unacceptable scores. Up to this point, the employee had received excellent evaluations. The employee goes to the company's HR professional and complains. Discuss the issues surrounding the situation. Determine who the investigation should be conducted including a timeline for responding to the employee and punishment, if any, for the supervisor. Include HR's role in this.
