NAACP lawsuit claims companies illegally refused to hire ex-cons — Web

June 25, 2015

Reuters reports dozens of companies that use popular recruiting websites violated a New York City law by refusing to hire anyone with a felony record, impacting mostly black people, according to a lawsuit filed today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The suit also names job-posting sites Monster, ZipRecruiter and Indeed as defendants because they would be required to remove such posts if the NAACP wins the case.
