Four women ranging in ages from 40 to 18
have filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against a supervisor, the owner of the
franchise and Chick-Fil-A.
The women allege that they endured two years of sexual
harassment from their supervisor, Gustavo Angulo. On her abuse, Durate said
that in one instance, “the manager putting me in the refrigerator and kissing
me and touching me in a sexual manner.”
In another instance, one woman was ordered to apologize to
the manager, who was also the perpetrator, after she was forcibly kissed and
reported the abuse to the manger. In addition to the harassment the women faced
retaliation.
The women sought out a sexualharassment attorney because Chick-Fil-A failed to address their initial
complaints. They are seeking an undisclosed amount of damages.
The women also allege other abuses including battery,
negligent supervision, hiring and retention, and intentional infliction of
emotional distress.
Durate said, “I think I have the right as any human being to
work without harassment. I want justice for myself and I want justice for my
co-workers.”
A sexual harassment lawyer will make certain victims get justice. They will work tirelessly to
gather evidence and prove the allegations.
When a victim of this behavior retains a sexual harassment attorney they can be
certain they will have a vocal advocate and someone who will stand up for their
rights.
