Convergys employee allege sex abuse at workplace
Bengaluru: Two women employees of customer management multinational Convergys have lodged police complaints alleging sexual harassment at workplace. They said senior male colleagues sought sexual favours from them in exchange for salary increment and promotion.
The complaints were filed on April 8. The Suddaguntepalya police registered two FIRs and arrested the three men identified as Mohammad Noman, Faizan Shameem and Rajarshi Bhat, all working in the company's human resource department. They were later let off on bail.
One of the women, 24-year-old Shweta (name changed), stated in her complaint that her co-workers, especially Shameem, Rajarshi and her supervisor Noman, often passed lewd remarks about her character, looks and attire.
She claimed the men took advantage of her traumatic past as she was molested by an Uber driver in December last year.
They would send her messages on social media, inviting her to weekend parties and suggesting that red wine increases libido.
The woman said the three men regularly texted her, sometimes well past midnight. There was always an element of sexual innuendo in their conversations. They sought sexual favours on the sly in exchange for salary increment and promotion.
"If this is not sexual harassment, what is it," she asked in the complaint.
