FedEx employees allege ignored voyeurism concerns, demand action

Employees at a FedEx depot in Delta, British Columbia, are demanding greater privacy protections after alleging their concerns about voyeurism in a staff washroom were dismissed by management. The employees claim a recording device was hidden in the washroom, with images allegedly uploaded online.

I was really shocked, and the first thing that came to my mind was like, ‘Oh my God, I could be one of them!’ Like, I was panicking.

One employee, identified only as Bara, expressed shock and panic upon hearing the news, fearing she might be among the victims. "I was really shocked, and the first thing that came to my mind was like, ‘Oh my God, I could be one of them!’ Like, I was panicking," she told Global News.

Delta police confirmed an investigation into the suspected recording device found at the Tilbury FedEx depot. While an employee arrested in connection with the incident was released without charges, FedEx stated the individual was terminated. Victim's advocate Gurpreet Kaur reported that at least seven employees, including men, have come forward alleging they saw the suspect entering the female washroom multiple times. "They reported him, but nothing was done," Kaur said.

Two employees told Global News they witnessed the suspect entering and exiting the women's washroom at least three times over the past year and were told by management to "relax" when they reported it. FedEx has not directly addressed these specific allegations but confirmed an internal investigation is underway. Employees are emphasizing their right to feel safe and private at work, with Bara stating, "We deserve to feel safe and private in the bathrooms that we use every single day."
