Case Summary

In September 2006, the Charlotte District Office and Raleigh Area Office of the EEOC filed this lawsuit against Henrendon Furniture Industries, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, alleging discrimination on the basis of race, African-American, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Specifically, the complaint alleged the defendant subjected the complaining parties to a racially hostile work environment. Following some discovery, the parties settled the lawsuit in January 2008 through a consent decree.The three-year decree, containing anti-discrimination and retaliation language, required the defendant to: report complaints and make other compliance reports, allow the EEOC access for monitoring, expunge the complainants' employment records and provide references, post and distribute notice of employee rights, provide employee training, revise its harassment policy, and pay $465,000 to seven individuals. The docket sheet does not show any further enforcement; the case was presumably closed in 2011.
