Nike facing US probe over alleged discrimination against white workers

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission seeks evidence from Nike amid claims of discrimination against white workers under its diversity program, marking a key federal investigation.

  • On Wednesday, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed in Missouri to compel Nike to produce records related to alleged discrimination against white workers.
  • After the EEOC's late‑last‑year call for complaints, companies have scrambled over a year to align policies with White House preferences, reflecting broader pressure on DEI programs.
  • Earlier the agency dismissed a Sheetz case and has closed other complaints, illustrating prior enforcement choices including dropping multiple complaints alleging discrimination against transgender workers.
  • Critics say the EEOC's narrow focus, highlighted by Jenny Yang, a former EEOC chair, who now represents a Sheetz applicant, shifts enforcement and may impact DEI efforts.
