If the severity is that of exceeding the bounds of laws.

The length of time of this banishment would depend on the severity and if it was repeated, yes.

Simple answer.

For the same reason that every crime fies’tvwarrant the death penalty.

and the consequences should at least correlate with such...

Larry Nassar, Bill Cosby and Weinstein, for example, deserve to be locked up- for life. They are sick rapists and menaces to society.

is an entirely different matter from harassment in the workplace.

Women beware of men who hardly know you and invite you into their apartment.

In the workplace, harassment should be stopped, and harassers should be "inconvenienced" by having to find another job, not the harassed.

And this should be such a standard procedure in all workplaces that harassment in the workplace virtually ends.

If a woman agrees to go to a man's room or apartment, she is not necessarily agreeing to sexual contact, but she should make her views clear before she goes. I know that is hard for young women, but it is a good idea to just talk about things openly. I know I am not entirely realistic in writing this. But, if possible . . . .

Partially the severity of the crime. Jared Fogle and Larry Nassar can rot in prison. Also contrition and making a real effort to change behavior.

I'm also okay with holding high level people to a higher standard. Police, politicians, teachers etc, need to be above reproach.

But I also understand the stuff goes on up and down the economy. If everyone who committed sexual harassment was permanently exiled, that's a lot of guys who can't get jobs.

of finding a new job should be on the harasser, not on the harassed.

Get you banished but if there are lots of low level incidents, it might add up to incorrigible and you have to go. First low level incident: no

In most cases that I know about, the victim of sexual harassment gets paid a sum of money and loses her job. That's been what I have seen. My experience is limited, but I bet it's the most common result.

Not fair.

The harasser should pay the price and if that is losing his/her job, it should not be the victim who loses her/his job.

This is an equality issue. Usually but not always the harasser is the person in the higher position in the workplace, and he (usually but not always a he) harasses his subordinate female. And the woman, the female pays the price. Her career or job is placed in jeopardy and often, usually lost.

Harassment in the workplace is more about power than sex or gender. And that is why the harasser should be removed from the workplace if not for harassment, for abuse of power.
