Posh Hotel Settles English-Only Lawsuit

In a recent lawsuit, a posh hotel (it doesn’t say which one) has agreed to settle a lawsuit in which 13 Hispanic workers were forced out from their jobs for speaking Spanish while at work. The agreement includes some interesting features, such as

the company cannot have an English-only rule for its employees;
the company must amend and reissue nondiscrimination policies;
the company must train its managers and employees in non-discrimination laws;
and the company’s senior vice president must take three hours of one-on-one training, covering topics such as discrimination, retaliation, harassment, diversity, and sensitivity.
