US civil rights agency sues Coca-Cola distributor for excluding men from casino work trip
The EEOC is seeking monetary relief for a class of excluded men after a two-day women-only event provided paid time off, lodging, meals, and salaries, alleging Title VII violations.
- The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission sued Coca-Cola Beverages Northeast for violating federal law by excluding men from a networking event for female employees at a casino in Connecticut.

- Experts say this case could have broader implications for workplace events that target specific groups, as the EEOC argues excluding a protected class, such as men, from employer-sponsored events violates federal law.
