It is deplorable that race and sex discrimination still exists. But shouldn’t these be dealt with by the company before the EEOC steps in? If the C-level Execs knew of the noose incident, they would have told the lower level supervisor to fire the pranksters. There are jokes and there are racial actions. Next, business owners are encouraged to hire the disabled and handicapped. This article says to me that you have to have special rules about showing up to work for them? Shouldn’t we all be equal? Same for background screening. If a business doesn’t want to hire criminals, shouldn’t that apply across the board? Why do 300 blacks get to claim discrimination.
For bringing suits that lose, like the Cintas case, it looks like our tax dollars went to Cintas. Why didn’t someone at EEOC lose their job for this $2.6 million mistake?
However, in many instances, brining that up to someone higher up the food chain would get the complainer fired for some madeup unrelated reason.
Similar things happen in my department to people who speak up about complaints–suddenly the quailty of their work plummets, they’re passed over for promotions/better raises.
If you don’t think problems like this are endemic…you must work at a better company than I do.

In a perfect world–that would be the case.
