According to a lawsuit filed Thursday, it all transpired at the Panda Express in Kapaa on Kauai.

"You have at least three young women, that we know of, where this was their first job working as high school girls," said Amrita Mallik, who is a trial lawyer for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

The lewd details poured out of a federal lawsuit, where it says, for years, teenage girls working at that location say they were relentlessly harassed by their supervisor.

Defendant Shaleah Rodero-Workman says after six months of what's being called "severe inappropriate physical contact" she finally quit.

"He would take a broomstick and stick it between my legs, he would grab me, would pin me in the freezer, he would do sexual things with vegetables and he would rub up on me," she said.

Workman says when she complained, instead of her supervisor being punished, she was punished, with reduced hours, followed by poorer working conditions.

"I didn't know what to do," she said.

It wasn't just the Kauai managers who knew about this. According to the lawsuit, the girls complained to the manager who oversees the Kauai restaurant and several restaurants on Oahu. KITV talked to that manager by phone who said he's now looking for a lawyer.

"The EEOC was deeply concerned about the egregious nature of this harassment," said Mallik.The EEOC said the sexual harassment went on since least 2008.

Mallik said attorneys engaged in several rounds of negotiations with the parties involved, but failed to reach a resolution, so they filed a lawsuit.

"These were high school girls in Kapaa that were affected by it and the fact that they were coming forward and nothing was being done."

The EEOC believes the Kapaa supervisor and manager named in their lawsuit no longer work at the Kauai Panda Express.

Mallik said they've updated their "youth at work page" on their website, to give workers the information they need, to avoid discrimination and harassment at work.
