Employee Discrimination
This is a settlement for the Discrimination lawsuit.
Portland, OR: (Jan-15-08) The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) brought charges against Supreme Corp. and Supreme Northwest LLC, alleging that the company discriminated against its employees. The EEOC lawsuit claimed that the Indiana-based automotive manufacturer harassed and subjected seven employees at its Woodburn facility to disparate treatment, which included being demoted, subjected to discriminatory termination, and forced into involuntary resignation. The discrimination was spearheaded by the plant manager, and directed mostly at Hispanic/Mexican employees.
The EEOC's suit, filed in the US District Court for the District of Oregon, reached settlement after the company agreed to pay $427,000 and other relief, to resolve allegations. Additionally, the company will review its discrimination, harassment and retaliation policies; train its managers, supervisors and employees about prohibited harassment, discrimination and retaliation under Title VII; and provide information to the EEOC concerning its handling of harassment, discrimination and retaliation complaints for a period of three years.
