PHILADELPHIA (AP) - December 1, 2008
Eleven plaintiffs are named in a $200 million discrimination
suit filed Monday against the Compass Group and others. The global
firm handles food services for Comcast.
Lawyer Douglas Wigdor says that seven of the 11 plaintiffs were
fired as the once mostly black staff became mostly white.
An Associated Press call to a Compass Group spokeswoman at the
firm's U.S. headquarters in Charlotte, N.C., has not been
immediately returned.
The suit is filed in federal court.
