As a former employee who worked for Safeway we had a store manager in the early 90's that got fired for sexual harrassment. At first they told us he was on personal leave and then after a few weeks we were told he was let go.

Not much official info was released on what he did to certain female employees. That being said some employees opened up to others and talked about what happened. Things along the lines of sex in exchange for promotions and other things. One I knew well said he got exactly what he deserved.

His behaviour towards me was a bit creepy as he would often put his arm around me when explaining what he wanted done. It got to a point where I avoided any conversations with him. If a night shift was over and he was coming into the store i'd wait until he went upstairs before leaving.

A week after his firing Safeway sent people to all the stores to give presentations on what consitutes sexual harrassment and how one should deal with it and most importantly who to report it to.

A few months later I found out that my fired store manager was now working for CO-OP as a district manager. Made me wonder how got hired.
