As part of the settlement announced today, the parties entered into a three-year consent decree requiring Kintetsu to hire an equal employment opportunity (EEO) consultant to monitor the company's compliance with the ADA; create new policies and procedures to address disability discrimination; and train all employees on the ADA annually with additional live training for management and human resources officials to effectively deal with future disability discrimination, harassment and retaliation complaints. Aside from the monetary relief for the victims, Kintetsu will also track future complaints by creating a centralized tracking system and design disciplinary policies to hold employees accountable for discrimination. EEOC will monitor both compliance with the agreement and the handling of future EEO complaints.
