EEOC Announces Settlement with Ford

Ford Motor Co., along with two related companies and a national union, will pay $1.6 million and provide other remedial relief to a class of nearly 700 African Americans to settle a race discrimination lawsuit brought by the EEOC. The EEOC had charged that the written test used by Ford, Visteon and Automotive Components Holdings (ACH) to select employees an apprenticeship program had a disproportionately negative impact on African Americans.
