Juan Carlos Bravo had complained conditions at the plant contributed to his asthma and other medical problems.
LOS ANGELES — A jury Monday ordered sriracha sauce-makerto pay $1.025 million to a former mixer who alleged he was retaliated against for complaining that conditions at the plant contributed to his asthma and other medical problems.
Bravo worked for the Irwindale-based company from September 2013 until his firing in June 2017, when defense attorneys said he was caught on video causing contamination of the sriracha sauce. A few days after Bravo’s complaints to the first supervisor, a second boss confronted him and said, “You’re just too lazy,” then berated him about his medical condition, which also included stomach and respiratory infections and pain in his back, neck, knees and hands, according to the suit.
