Supreme Court to Determine Discrimination Claims Standards for White and Straight Workers

Reported 3 months ago

The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case that questions whether it is harder for workers from majority backgrounds, such as white or heterosexual individuals, to prove discrimination in the workplace. The case arises from Marlean Ames, who claims she lost her job and promotion opportunities to gay colleagues, challenging a lower court's decision which stated that she had not shown sufficient evidence to fulfill the criteria for discrimination. A ruling in her favor could impact the growing number of similar lawsuits related to diversity and inclusion policies.
