| The U.S. Department of Labor has sued Oracle for discriminatory employment practices, the government body announced on Wednesday. The Department of Labor specifically states that the company has “a systemic practice” in place of paying white male workers more than others in the same role, including “women, African American and Asian employees.”
The suit also alleges that Oracle favours Asian workers in its recruitment efforts for technical and product roles, which resulted in discrimination in its hiring practices against non-Asian job seekers applying for those roles. The suit is being brought by the U.S. Department of Labor because it is a federal contractor, providing services, software and hardware to the U.S. government. Federal contractors are required to maintain equitable and fair hiring practices. The full complaint from the Department of Labor is embedded below. |
