Haitian Farmworkers Settle Sexual Harassment Lawsuit Against Major Florida Fruit and Vegetable Wholesaler

One of Florida's largest fruit and vegetable wholesalers has agreed to pay $215,000 to settle allegations of sexual harassment in one of the few such lawsuits ever brought on behalf of farmworker women in the United States. The lawsuit alleged that five Haitian women working at Gargiulo Inc.'s tomato packinghouse in Immokalee were subjected to repeated, unwelcome sexual advances by their supervisor and then faced retaliation after they complained. The retaliation included the firing of three of the women...Although the company denied responsibility for any wrongdoing, the parties reached an amicable settlement before trial.
