A Clemmons, North Carolina Burger King Manager didn’t get the memo. Kathleen Joyner, a teenaged employee at the fast food restaurant, sued Burger King after she was repeatedly propositioned for sex by her General Manager. When she reported the sexual harassment to assistant managers, they did nothing. Now Burger King Inc. will have to fork over $85,000 for damages and provide sexual harassment training to its supervisors.
Regardless of where you work, if you’ve reached the level of General Manager, I’m pretty certain you ’ve rubbed up against at least one sexual harassment policy along the way. The truth is, men and women who stalk their employees like prey usually know exactly what the company’s sexual harassment policies are. They simply choose to ignore them.
