Nothing wakes up “woke” America better than when one of its celebrities gets caught being a bad actor.

Those occasions should wake up Washington and every C-suite in the country, as well.

Ronan Farrow’s new book, “Catch and Kill,” highlights the ferocities of famous television and motion picture elites who have abused colleagues, co-workers and underlings in the workplace. The abusive practices were sexual, physical and emotional.

The employers of some of the biggest names in film and TV — generally large corporations — go to great lengths to cover up their stars’ atrocities.

Matt Lauer, Charlie Rose and Harvey Weinstein all maintained their jobs despite years of conduct unbecoming to a corporation.

It’s long past time that those who hire, house, protect and pay these predators feel the long arm of the law — and Big Government’s wrath — in order to put an end to this.

A leader of a company, large or small, or even a team supervisor, has an obligation to create a safe work environment.

Think crane operators and hard hats, hospital and factory workers, all of whom are protected from on-the-job harm by OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Act.

Why hasn’t Congress, which nowadays prefers to investigate rather than legislate, dragged a few accused TV anchors and corporate low-lifes to sit in front of them for a hearing?

If the departments of Labor and Justice and even the FCC ever missed their callings, this would be the instance. The bell has been ringing rather loudly for years.

Everyone should feel physically safe in the workplace, and anyone who has verifiably abused another or aided in covering it up needs an appointment with a detective — just like any other predator.
