Read previewA former employee will receive $105,000 in back pay and damages after her company of nearly 20 years fired her when she refused to retire at 65, the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said last week. According to a discrimination lawsuit filed by the federal agency, J&M Industries, Inc., a manufacturing and distribution company in Louisiana, violated federal age discrimination laws by firing the employee. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act, or ADEA, prohibits discrimination against individuals aged 40 or older based on age. Advertisement"It provides relief for the former employee and will help protect others from age discrimination," he added.

ExxonMobil didn't protect workers from racial discrimination, a federal agency says in a new suit. Five nooses were found at a Louisiana Exxon plant, the EEOC says in the lawsuit. While the contractors were banned, the suit claims that ExxonMobil did not take other measures like counseling or policy changes. A supervisor removed the noose, but didn't notify human resources, and no investigation took place, the suit claims. McGhee reported the noose to his supervisor, and another investigation was unable to identify who installed the noose, the suit said.
