$\"NewsHub\"$ The US Department of Labor has filed an employee pay discrimination suit against Oracle.
The US Department of Labor filed a lawsuit against Oracle alleging pay discrimination practices against female, African American and Asian employees.
In addition, the department alleges that Oracle had a „systemic practice of favoring Asian workers in its recruiting and hiring practices for product development and other technical roles. “
Oracle spokeswoman Deborah Hellinger said:
The Department of Labor said it reviewed Oracle’s equal employment opportunity practices starting in 2014. Oracle also didn’t reply to the department’s routine requests.
According to the Department of Labor ( complaint ):
For Oracle, the lawsuit could turn out to be costly. The Department of Labor noted that Oracle has a bevy of government contracts that could be at risk.
„Oracle has received hundreds of millions in federal government contracts,“ said the Department of Labor. „If Oracle fails to provide relief as ordered in the lawsuit, OFCCP requests that all its government contracts be canceled and that it be debarred from entering into future federal contracts. „<\/p>\n
