We believe that our diverse and inclusive culture inspires our people to reach higher..."WHAT THEY DOIn Reality: 19 UPS workers are suing the company and five managers, alleging that for years it engaged in discriminatory hiring and permitted a series of racist acts. The latter allegedly included white employees using racial slurs toward African-American coworkers, joking about attending Ku Klux Klan meetings, and the appearance of nooses, Confederate flags and a stuffed monkey in the workplace.Managers at the UPS distribution hub in Maumee, Ohio, "enabled, tolerated, and purposefully promoted and encouraged" a culture of racism at the site that led to racist acts and discriminatory employment decisions, according to the complaint. "They have promoted and tolerated an atmosphere of racism in which individual employees feel free to display overt racial biases."Read our recent blog on how one Black attorney is speaking out about the realities of diversity and inclusion.#ownyourown#perversityandillusion#investinus
