More details to this question:
Before I got this job, at the orientation they said they have a zero tolerance for sexual harassment. When I started working I got sexually harassed by one of their cooks. He knew my age ( at the time I was 17 ) and he touched my butt. I reported it immediately and they said they were going to check the cameras and run and investigation. They told me I can press charges for underage sexual assault. I went to the prescient and they told me to make sure that the company doesn’t delete the footage because that’s all I’d have on him. Coincidentally the cameras stopped working “ four days before the incident “. The company told me they were still going to hold an investigation and talk to the guy who touched me. They have never kept me updated on anything in addition to the fact the guy still has his job. Which I am uncomfortable and unhappy about ... please help me

Sexual harassment has to be severe or pervasive. This is regardless of age. Next time you might be able to get an order of protection signed by a judge. That would almost certainly result in the harasser losing their job.
You did the right thing. You reported him. Take notes pay attention to work behaviors and report everything that is severe or pervasive meaning it happens a lot or over and over.
Good luck. Again you did the right thing. An isolated incident is not enough. Assuming he has not repeated it he got the message. He could and may lose his job next time.
