smwialogoIn an EEOC lawsuit going back 45 years, Local 25 of the Sheet Metal Workers’ International Association (northern New Jersey area) and its associated apprenticeship school will pay a combined $1.65 million and provide substantial remedial relief in partial settlement of race discrimination claims. The local has demonstrated a decades-long history of discrimination against African American and Hispanic workers, and this latest settlement was for a 10-year period covering April 1991 through December 2002 (the period prior to April 1991 had already been settled).
