NORFOLK SOUTHERN RAILWAY SUED BY EEOC FOR SEX DISCRIMINATION

The railroad removed Kathryn Class from yardmaster training and replaced her with a less qualified male employee, the EEOC said in its lawsuit against Norfolk Southern Railway Company (Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-02566-RDB), filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland. The company claims it removed her from the training class based on its policy prohibiting individuals from directly or indirectly supervising, or being supervised by, a relative. The EEOC charged this reason was but a ruse for sex discrimination because, despite this policy, the railroad has employed male employees who were supervised by a relative, or who supervised a relative.

They discriminated against her because her name is Kathryn, not because she is a woman. A man named Kathryn would be discriminated against, too.

Case fails.

Actually, there's a sexual harrassment tie-in at B'more that involved a promotion and transfer of an official who is now in the hills.

LAMCO protects its own.

Lets see...whats that acronym?....Oh yes...........BOHICA!!


http://www.eeoc.gov/press/9-30-09p.html

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination in training and promotions based on sex. The EEOC attempted to reach a voluntary settlement before filing its lawsuit. The EEOC seeks injunctive relief, including policies, procedures and training to prevent future workplace discrimination. The EEOC also seeks to have the company compensate Class for her monetary losses and emotional pain and humiliation.

Everyone deserves the freedom to compete in the workplace on a fair and level playing field, without discriminatory barriers to advancement, said EEOC Acting Regional Attorney Debra Lawrence. Title VII protects women as they attempt to move into traditionally male-dominated occupations.

NS sued by EEOC
BALTIMORE, Md. -- One of the nation's premier transportation companies engaged in unlawful sex discrimination when it refused to provide a female employee with training necessary to obtain a promotion to a yardmaster position, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit it announced today (Oct. 3).

The railroad removed Kathryn Class from yardmaster training and replaced her with a less qualified male employee, the EEOC said in its lawsuit against Norfolk Southern Railway Company (Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-02566-RDB), filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland.

The company claims it removed her from the training class based on its policy prohibiting individuals from directly or indirectly supervising, or being supervised by, a relative.

The EEOC charged this reason was but a ruse for sex discrimination because, despite this policy, the railroad has employed male employees who were supervised by a relative, or who supervised a relative.

What a bold face lie that is. The history of railroads and nepotism go hand in hand.
