A. Train employees that inappropriate behavior includes targeting employees based on sexual orientation

Teasing homosexual men also can actually affect their mental well being hence making them less productive at work. So the best thing for the old manufacturer to do is to call up a meeting and them the employees that such act is also considered Inappropriate.
