Auto Dealership Harassment
This is a settlement for the Automotive lawsuit.
Baltimore, MD: (Sep-25-07) The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) brought a lawsuit against Norris Automotive Holdings, which did business as Norris Ford, on behalf of two women, Barbara Dabbs and Christina Humphries-Korenstra. The lawsuit alleged that a body shop manager installed video cameras behind a mirror in a bathroom at the car dealership, and that the women were subjected to unwelcome advances and inappropriate touching by manager David Weimer at the Norris Ford in Dundalk. The suit stated that both women were fired soon after their complaints to management were made about the sexual harassment. The EEOC said it filed suit in US District Court in Baltimore after first attempting to reach a voluntary settlement.
In a settlement reached, Norris Automotive Holdings agreed to pay $100,000 to the two women. In addition to the payout to the women, Norris will provide mandatory training to its managerial and supervisory employees on federal employment discrimination laws, and post a notice to all employees on harassment and discharge based on sex.
