Airport builders accused of harassment

More than a dozen female Thai Airways workers have accused construction workers at Bangkok's new international airport of sexual harassment, saying they were verbally or physically assaulted while working evening shifts.

Suvarnabhumi airport opened in September but remains under construction, with workers roaming corridors through the night.

Three female ground staff said they were molested late at night by workers who groped them as they walked through dimly lit corridors.

Women have complained of finding workers peering over the toilet stalls in restrooms.

About a dozen have reported incidents of verbal harassment.

One Thai Airways employee, Santini Samiphakwiwatwej, said a construction worker appeared to be stalking her.
