Alleged sexual assault and workplace harassment involving employees
Reference material reports allegations by a female contract worker that multiple male JAFCO employees subjected her to persistent harassment and that one employee sexually assaulted her after a year-end gathering in 2019. The account further alleges pressure to resign, a reduction in contract compensation and eventual termination. JAFCO reportedly denied that her dismissal was connected to her complaints. The matter was associated with legal action and calls for workplace and human-rights reforms.
