In September 2005, the Phoenix District Office and Denver Office of the EEOC filed this lawsuit against Convergys Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the District of Utah alleging discrimination on the basis of sex, female, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Equal Pay Act. Specifically, the complaint alleged that the defendant paid the commplainants less than their male counterparts for performing the same task. Following some discovery, the parties settled the lawsuit through a consent decree in May 2007.
The two-year decree, containing an anti-discrimination clause, required the defendant to: make compliance reports, keep records of compliance, expunge the complainants' employment records, post notice of employee rights, provide EEO training, and pay $90,000 to be distributed among four individuals. The docket sheet does not show any further enforcement; the case was presumably closed in 2009.
