Employee Not Terminated for Discriminatory Reason
LVT Number: 17976
(Decision submitted by Kara Rakowski of the Manhattan law firm of Belkin Burden Wenig & Goldman, LLP, attorneys for the landlord.) Former employee complained that landlord terminated her employment based on her race, color, and sex. The N.Y.S. Division of Human Rights ruled against employee. There was no proof that employee was written up or fired for any discriminatory reason. Landlord had given employee a number of warnings about her time, attendance, and work performance. Landlord then fired employee when she arrived late for work one day and failed to punch in at the time clock to record her arrival time.
