$400,000 for Race Discrimination And Retaliation Case: The EEOC settled a $400K class action race discrimination and retaliation case against Mineral Met Inc. ...black employees were disciplined for trivial matters – such as having facial hair or using a cell phone -- while white employees were not disciplined for the same conduct. When one of the supervisors complained, it resulted in intensified racially discriminatory treatment and retaliation. The EEOC also charged that African-American employees were also subjected to other forms of racial harassment, including evidence that a white supervisor placed a hangman’s noose on a piece of machinery. Race discrimination in employment and retaliation for complaining about discrimination violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. --employeerightspost.
