Advocacy group America First Legal (AFL) is taking action against three major U.S. airlines for discriminating against employees on the basis of race and sex, calling for suspending their federal contracts.
AFL on Wednesday filed complaints against American Airlines, United Airlines, and Southwest Airlines with the Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) for “illegal racial and sex discrimination” in employment practices, according to a Jan. 17 post by the advocacy.
