In September 2002, the Houston office of the EEOC brought this Title VII and ADEA suit against Wholesale Electric Supply Company of Houston in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. The complaint alleged that the defendant discriminated against the claimants by failing to promote them and discharging them because of their sex (female) and ages (62 and 54). The case settled by entry of a consent decree in January 2004.
The two year consent decree required the defendant to refrain from discrimination and retaliation, provide the claimants with neutral references, expunge the claimant's records, provide EEO training for its managers, and pay the claimants $55,000.
