Worker claims UPS and JobUSA ignored harassment and retaliation at Pennsylvania facility
A new lawsuit filed October 20, 2025, accuses UPS and staffing agency JobUSA of failing to stop workplace harassment and retaliation at a Pennsylvania facility.
Tiana Lamboy, a former shift lead, claims she endured months of sexual harassment and threats while working at a UPS site in West Chester, Pennsylvania. According to her complaint, Lamboy was hired by JobUSA and assigned to the UPS facility in or around November 2023. She says her supervisor began flirting with her during her entire time at the facility, and the situation escalated to sexual relations, which she states occurred after she felt uncomfortable but ultimately reciprocated as she was in need of the position.
Lamboy alleges that after she became pregnant in or around April 2024, her supervisor told her she would not have a job if she did not have an abortion. The complaint states that the supervisor became physical with her and told her to "shoot her from the parking lot according to the sharpshooter in the military." Lamboy claims she underwent an abortion due to this pressure and threats.
After the abortion, Lamboy says the workplace atmosphere became more hostile. She alleges being told her pay had increased to $18.00 per hour, but her paycheck only reflected a $0.50 per hour raise. When she questioned the pay discrepancy, Lamboy claims her supervisor told her to "come over tonight and we'll discuss it." She also alleges that management showed little empathy when she raised concerns, and that she was written up for a minor infraction after returning to work.
The complaint describes a lack of meaningful intervention from other supervisors and managers. Lamboy states that another supervisor, Tommy, laughed at her concerns, and that when she ultimately left her employment, it was after what she describes as repeated mistreatment. She further alleges that she received calls from another manager, Rocco, who acknowledged her supervisor’s actions but did not provide corrective action.
By February 2025, Lamboy alleges the situation had escalated to the point where a female employee attempted to intervene, fearing for Lamboy’s safety. Lamboy was then asked to stay home and, on February 22, 2025, her employment was terminated.
Lamboy is seeking compensatory and punitive damages, including lost wages, emotional distress, and other relief, with a total amount in excess of $150,000. The lawsuit accuses both JobUSA and UPS of failing to provide a safe workplace and of ignoring complaints about harassment and retaliation. The complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
These are allegations only, and no findings have been made by the court.
For HR leaders, this lawsuit is a reminder of the risks when workplace complaints are not addressed—especially in settings where staffing agencies and host employers share responsibility. The case underscores the importance of clear reporting channels, prompt investigations, and a culture where employees feel safe raising concerns. As organizations increasingly rely on contingent workers, the duty to protect staff remains clear. The outcome of this case could influence how HR teams approach joint employment and workplace safety in the future.
