Gloria Ramirez says female workers suffer most in the fields. “If a young female worker doesn’t give into her supervisor’s sexual requests, he will fire her or make her life a living hell. He’ll punish all of us for days – with no food, water or restroom breaks.” She says the break times workers are given are not long enough. “The bathrooms are located too far for us to use,” she said. “There have been times I have really had to use the restroom, but they are so far, I could not make it in time and accidentally had to urinate on myself.”
