VETERANS AFFAIRS HAS AN $8 MILLION SEXUAL HARASSMENT PROBLEM
When it comes to sexual harassment, the Department of Veterans Affairs has a big problem that is costing taxpayers millions in settlements from money that should be used to hire more doctors and nurses.
Lax sexual harassment policies and investigations have forced American taxpayers to fund millions in settlements to victims of Veterans Affairs supervisors perpetrating acts including masturbation, groping and sexual assault.
According to The Daily Dot, in 2014, a nurse working at a clinic operated by the Aurora VA Medical Center said she was confused and scared when her colleague walked up behind her and, without warning, stuck his hands down her pants.
The same man allegedly told another nurse that he wanted to have oral sex with her, with “[her] legs above his shoulders.”
Later that same day, he allegedly cornered the woman in a stairwell, pushed her against the wall, and tried to stick his tongue in her mouth.
At another VA in California, an employee said she was repeatedly harassed by her boss between 2010 and 2014. The harassment got so bad that at one point the supervisor pulled out his penis and started masturbating.
“It’s pretty much a boy’s club; it’s a guy’s club,” said a former VA employee, who asked not to be named. The employee said a military mindset bleeds into VA culture.
“There’s a bit of a code there—you don’t rat on the people you served with."
