The Consumerist » Lawsuit: Is Walgreens Racist? The US Federal Government has filed a class action lawsuit against Walgreens Co., a national drug store chain located in a variety of US States.
The lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission alleges that Walgreens, based out of Augusta, GA, makes decisions about promotions based on the race of employees. "Black managers are assigned to stores in black neighborhoods more often than one would expect, and black employees are not being promoted to management and within management as often as similar white employees, " said EEOC regional attorney Robert Johnson in Atlanta. The suit is seeking an injunction against the company from engaging in the alleged misconduct.

The suit may end up representing discrimination claims from more than 10, 000 employees. Most of the complaints come from employees in Augusta, GA, Aiken/North Augusta, SC, St. Louis, Kansas City, Detroit and Tampa, FL but the EEOC says it has lots of evidence of similar situations occurring in other parts of the country.

Walgreens issued a statement saying, "As a company with a history of commitment to fairness, diversity and opportunity, we are saddened and disappointed by the EEOC's decision. Our commitment is to providing opportunity to all employees -- not only because it is the right thing to do but because our business was built on this principle."

It added: "Fairness and equality always have been the cornerstones of our business. We're the nation's best represented retailer in urban areas, and managers of all backgrounds are promoted to senior levels from those locations."
