Yes. Any person committing acts of sexual harassment or allowing them to continue or retaliating against a person who made a harassment complaint may be held personally liable. The company is not always the one that is responsible. In many cases a person who sexually harasses another is held liable while the company is not if the company can prove it acted promptly and appropriately to stop the harassment once the situation became known.
