The famous donut chain, Dunkin’ Donuts, has been sued for sexual harassment. The lawsuit alleges that several female employees were subjected to severe sexual harassment by their manager. The lawsuit was filed by the Equal Employment and Opportunity Commission (EEOC) on behalf o the victims. The suit alleged that the manager subjected female employees to unwanted physical contact including touching of the victim’s buttocks and breasts, kissing on the neck, and hugging. In addition, the manager asked them about their sex lives and described in explicit detail the sexual acts he wanted to perform on them.

If you have experienced something similar to this disgusting and offensive behavior, you may also be a victim of sexual harassment. There are two basic types of sexual harassment. The first type of sexual harassment is ‘quid-pro-quo’ harassment. This type occurs when an employer asks for sexual favors in exchange for work related benefits. Therefore, if your boss offers to give you a raise if you sleep with him, you have been subjected to quid-pro-quo harassment. In addition, this type of harassment occurs in the negative. Therefore, if your boss threatens to terminate you if you do not fulfill a sexual request, you are also a likely victim of quid-pro-quo harassment. The second type of sexual harassment is known as the ‘hostile environment.’ This type of harassment occurs when a boss, manager, or coworker does or says something to make you feel uncomfortable because of your sex. This offensive behavior must also be either severe or pervasive.

If you have been dealing with unwanted touching, offensive sexual comments, or severe and repeated sexual innuendo, you may very well be a victim of sexual harassment.
