She says Starbucks fired her after another worker spit in NJ cop’s drink
A Starbucks employee, fired after more than 20 years with the company, says she was essentially made a scapegoat after another employee was caught spitting into a police officer's drink in 2020.
Kelly Hansen-Grosman, of the Hewitt section of West Milford, filed a wrongful termination lawsuit on Jan. 6, against the Starbucks Corporation, as first reported by NorthJersey.com.
She also has accused the company of disability discrimination, based on her diagnosis with attention deficit disorder.
Two of her company superiors also are named as defendants, district manager Matthew Phillips and regional manager Michael Scott, who further is accused of invasion of privacy.
In her lawsuit, Hansen-Grosman said that she was never accused of poor conduct until late July 2020 following her reports to Phillips about the allegation that a barista had spit into a law enforcement officer’s drink and her pledge to Park Ridge Police to cooperate with their investigation.
