One of Melbourne’s biggest supermarket pizza suppliers has been ordered to pay more than $53,000 to a former employee who suffered sexual harassment when a male colleague looked at her breasts rather than her face when he spoke to her.
Tribunal member Louise Johnson accepted Kumari’s evidence and rejected Della Rosa’s submission that any penalty should not exceed $500. “Ms Kumari’s immediate manager ... treated Ms Kumari unfavourably due to her race when he said to her, ‘You are Indian, I don’t like Indians, they always cause problems’,” Johnson said in the order.Following her report of sexual harassment, Kumari said management told her to take annual leave, even though she said she was saving it to visit family in India.
