CLEVELAND - A lawsuit filed in federal court accuses national grocery chain Kroger Co. of age and race discrimination against a black employee in central Ohio.
| KR | 26.21 |  1.73 |
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed the lawsuit Thursday in U.S. District Court in Cleveland. It said Cincinnati-based Kroger violated the rights of 49-year-old Luther Spears by unlawfully blocking his opportunities for promotion at a Mansfield store.
The lawsuit seeks elimination of the alleged discriminatory practices and unspecified compensatory and punitive damages for Spears. The EEOC said Spears has worked for Kroger for 24 years and been denied numerous promotions. The suit said he often trained younger, white employees who received the promotions.
Kroger spokeswoman Meghan Glynn said the company doesn't comment on legal matters.
