Former McDonald’s Employee Files Discrimination Complaint After Sexual Harassment Investigation
A former Saratoga McDonald’s employee is filing a discrimination complaint against the company, according to a report.
Kenia Chapas, 27, claimed that she was inappropriately touched, received lewd comments on the job and felt stalked while working at the fast-food restaurant, reported The Mercury News.
“After participating in a sexual harassment investigation, McDonald’s retaliated against me by reducing my hours and then terminating me,” Chapas said in the draft complaint, obtained by The Mercury News.
The sexual harassment started in January, when a male coworker started offering to buy gifts for her and her children, to give her money and buy her something nice for Valentine’s Day, according to Chapas. The coworker also touched Chapas’ arms and asked to see her hands while working, she said.
