Alexandra SkoresQuest Diagnostics will pay $90,000 to settle a religious discrimination lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on behalf of a phlebotomist working in Rockwall.
But during the employee’s 10th year with the company in 2019, Quest denied her religious accommodation and fired her after she failed to work scheduled Saturday shifts, the EEOC said. “While we dispute the allegations and fully complied with all applicable laws in this case, we have agreed to settle this matter and enter into a consent decree with no admission of liability to avoid the distraction and expense of protracted litigation,” the spokesperson said.
