Seattle-based real estate giant found agent had been harassed, but took no disciplinary action against the alleged harasser, lawsuit claims
Redfin found that the photographer “engaged in sexually harassing behavior” but “failed to discipline him in any manner,” the suit claims. Company officials told Molano that since the man had already finished the photo job, it was “unlikely” she would have to work with him again, the suit alleges.
Redfin denied liability and said it would fight the lawsuit. “Redfin has zero tolerance for sexual assault, harassment and discrimination,” the company said in an emailed statement Wednesday. “We invest heavily to create a safe workplace. Beyond that, we can’t comment on personnel matters, except to confirm that Ms. Molano resigned her position in May.”
Molano, a listing agent, had several open contracts when she was terminated, and received no compensation or referral fees for them, her suit claims. She is seeking compensation and unspecified damages.
