A Melbourne supermarket pizza supplier has been ordered to pay a former employee more than $53,000 after she was sexually harassed by a male colleague who stared at her breasts. 7NEWS

When reporting this to her manager, Kumari faced a second blow and was subjected to racial discrimination when she was told: “You are Indian, I don’t like Indians, they always cause problems”.After making her initial complaint, Kumari said she was forced to take annual leave during the investigation, despite wanting to save her holidays to visit family in India.

Kumari refused to accept the transfer and after not returning to work, her employment was terminated in February 2018.
