thank you, come again!
Froogle 1.1.1.7
Froogled By:
Elias Makere, FSA, MAAA
Last Froogled:

CONSTRUCTIVE KNOWLEDGE

not actual, but accepted in law as a substitute for whatever is otherwise required. Thus, anything the law finds to exist constructively will be treated by the law as though it were actually so.

EXAMPLE:

John Doe charges ABC Co. with sexual harassment in his discrimination complaint. In the hearing, DOAH found that Mr. Doe's direct manager sexually harassed him. That finding rendered ABC Co. "constructively knowledgeable" of sexual harassment in the workplace; and, thus, liable.
Last Updated:
"punitive damages will ordinarily not be assessed against employers with only constructive knowledge"
Congratulations! You're now Froogled Up™ on what "Constructive Knowledge" means!
