The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. has reached an Agreement with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the federal agency responsible for enforcing federal employment discrimination statutes.
It is illegal under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) for an employer to ask disability related questions before making a job offer.
Wal-Mart, in the past, sought disability related information from job applicants before Wal-Mart made a conditional offer of employment.
All persons who believe they were rejected for employment because Wal-Mart requested information about their medical condition or disability may be entitled to money damages and/or a job offer.
If you believe you did not receive a job offer from a Wal-Mart Distribution Center for this reason, you may request a Claim Form and obtain further information at:
1-866-513-8206
or
www.eeocvwalmart.com
CLAIMS MUST BE FILED NO LATER THAN MARCH 1, 2002.
