JPMorgan Sued Over Gender Bias

Posted on October 19th, 2009 No Comments

The United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has sued JPMorgan Chase & Co over claims that the bank discriminated against women and fired an employee who complained about the practices at an office in Columbus, Ohio.

Aimee Doneyhue claims she was terminated in retaliation for complaining in 2007 that practices at the bank made it more difficult for women to earn commissions and bonuses. The lawsuit also alleges that female employees were targets of verbal sexual harassment.

The EEOC claims in the lawsuit that Doneyhue was called an “idiot” and a “pain in the ass” for her complaints to management about the “sexually hostile work environment which was created, fostered and maintained by male supervisors.”

If you or someone you know has been the victim of sexual harassment in the workplace, please contact the San Antonio Sexual Harassment Lawyers of Melton & Kumler, LLP, by calling 800-681-6932.
