Uniform manufacturer and supplier Cintas Corp. will pay $1.5 million to settle a sex discrimination lawsuit filed by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in connection with its hiring of female sales representatives, the agency said Dec. 1. The Cincinnati-based firm said in a statement it denies the EEOC's allegations and believes the agency's charges lack merit. The EECO said in a statement that evidence revealed that although females applied, they were not hired at Cintas "at a statistically significant level" throughout Michigan from 1999 until March 31, 2005, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Orange denies Telecom Italia talks, assesses expansion

2015-12-01 08:47:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Orange has denied reports that it has been discussing a possible tie-up with Telecom Italia, but it has admitted hiring banks to carry out an assessment of the European telecoms sector. "Orange's financial and strategic management team is working with banks to finetune its view of the evolution of the telecoms sector in the context of a single market on a 5- to 10-year horizon," a spokesman told Reuters, adding that "as far as Orange is concerned, no target has been identified today and no discussion has been opened with Telecom Italia." The company was responding to a Bloomberg report in which unnamed sources indicated that the French operator was exploring a potential combination with Telecom Italia and had opted to focus on expansion rather than an internal restructure.
