Igor Ustynskyy/Getty, Tyler Le/BIFederal commission finds Globe Life tolerated nonconsensual touch, unwelcome genital exposure, sexual quid-pro-quos at top agency.EEOC says agents at the Globe Life agency were employees, not contractors.Former agent says it was "brutal" fighting Globe after reporting sexual misconduct.The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has found that Globe Life tolerated a "pervasive pattern of harassing conduct" against women at one of its top-producing sales agencies.Many of the sexual harassers were so high up in the company that "they constitute alter egos or proxies" of Globe Life and one of its major divisions, American Income Life, the federal commission wrote.Business Insider has learned that the EEOC issued 14 so-called "letters of determination" on Thursday to six current or former AIL agents, validating their charges of sexual harassment, sexual assault, and gender discrimination, including inferior job training and sales leads.BI has exclusively obtained copies of all of the letters, including ones addressed to Globe Life, American Income Life, and the Arias Organization, a top AIL sales force.
