Asked over 2 years ago - New Orleans, LA
FlagI was a female supervisor in charge of a male employee who had been inappropriately touching and speaking to females and becoming irate with others in the office. When complaining to my superiors, the answer was we would have to work with him despite our concerns. No adequate solution or remedy. They swept it under the rug. I went on a travel assignment alone with him 4 hours from the office and was sexually harassed and physically assaulted by him. I reported it to my supervisors and the police. Two weeks passed and no one informed me of my rights or the results of an investigation. However, they fired me and kept him. I had no issues with my performance. In fact, I just entered into a new position and given a pay increase two weeks before the incident.
