FACTS
Claimants consisting of several female employees of Farmer John, a Los Angeles-based meat processing company, claimed that while working for the company, they were subjected to unwanted touching and comments from supervisors and other employees. In 2017, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission sued the operator of Farmer John, Clougherty Packing, LLC, alleging that the company violated federal law by subjecting a class of female workers to sexual harassment. The EEOC claimed that Clougherty Packing’s supervisors and employees sexually harassed female employees by subjecting them to unwanted touching and lewd comments. Thus, it asserted that the charging parties were subjected to unlawful employment discrimination based on their sex in violation of Title VII. Clougherty Packing denied all of the EEOC’s allegations., The charging parties sought recovery of an unspecified amount of compensatory damages.
