A Ruby Tuesday restaurant in Stroudsburg, PA has agreed to pay a total of $225,000 to five female employees in a sexual harassment lawsuit.

The Equal Employment Opportunities Commission filed the lawsuit against Ruby Tuesday’s general manager, Christopher Mendoza, and other supervisors in August of 2008. Originally more than 12 employees were involved in the suit, but the settlement ultimately only went to five.
The harassment included making sexual propositions to the female employees, frequently making sexually explicit and graphic remarks to them about their appearance, and making lewd comments in their presence about female customers.
