Protest Sexual Harassment of Employees at PepsiCo Poland

Our affiliate the Food Secretariat of NSZZ "Solidarnosc" has informed us of serious allegations of sexual harassment of employees by a supervisor at the PepsiCo snack food plant (Frito-Lay) located at Grodzisk Mazowiecki near Warsaw, Poland...Women have been reportedly called into the night shift supervisor's office over the last two years and sexually abused under threat of dismissal if they reported the incidents...The company's reaction to date has been to fire the victims rather than investigate the supervisor's alleged misconduct.
