Estee Lauder Sued For Paternity Leave Policy
- Bloomberg, Thursday, August 31, 2017 8 AM
Estee Lauder Companies Inc. is being sued by federal regulators for discriminating against men. The company’s parental leave policy allows new fathers to take two weeks of paid leave for “child bonding,” while new moms get six weeks, according to a lawsuit filed Wednesday with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunities Commission. The EEOC claims the practice violates the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Equal Pay Act of 1963.
