A recent study done at the University of South Australia analyzes sexual harassment lawsuits in order to determine which party involved is more like to leave their job after the lawsuit has been filed.

The results from the study show that 60 percent of the complainants are more likely to resign from the job after the lawsuit compared to only 10 percent of the alleged sexual harassment violators. 

The reason for this may be because in some workplaces, the negative feedback that comes after a sexual harassment lawsuit, tends to fall upon the person who files the complaint. This is why some formal complaints are never filed or why so much thought is put into filing them.
