Woman Fired For Being Too Busty At Lingerie Factory
Sexual harassment laws have brought attention to sexuality in the workplace and how it should be handled, but this boss is under fire for firing a woman because of her appearance.
… [T]wo days after getting hired in April as a data entry worker at a Garment District lingerie manufacturer, a supervisor told her the Orthodox Jewish owners were not happy with her attire — and that her girls were a dangerous distraction.
“When I was first told that I was too hot and that my breasts were too large, I was shocked,” the 29-year-old woman said. “I thought that I was dressed appropriately every day for my job as a production assistant ” … Odes said she agreed to accommodate the owners by wearing a gray T-shirt and black jeggings with rain boots the next day. Again, the female supervisor came with complaints from the bosses.
