The U.S Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said on April 23 that the five-year consent decree takes El Vallarta’s Gretna restaurant to task for allowing a supervisor and workers to sexually harass the teenage girl from 2016 to 2017.
The EEOC’s lawsuit said the girl was subjected to groping from a male manager and repeated, inappropriate comments about her body from the manager and other male employees when she worked at the restaurant.
