Halunen Law attorney Josh Newville offers insight for Law 360 article examining EEOC’s end-of-year “blitz” of lawsuits, including harassment cases

In the October 4, 2024 article. “EEOC Suits Warn Employers To Take Harassment Seriously,” Law360 reporter Vin Gurrieri examines the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) filing of approximately 110 merit lawsuits in fiscal year 2024, ending September 30.  Many of the cases accused employers of fostering environments in which workers were consistently harassed based on sex or race.

Halunen Law’s Employment Litigation Group Leader, Josh Newville, weighs in on the EEOC’s filings, sharing that the commission is “sending a very clear and very strong message” with its enforcement approach, a message that is difficult for individual employees to send on their own.

Read the full article, which includes additional commentary by Newville and further discussion of the EEOC’s latest anti-harassment enforcement push.
