Fife Settles Racial Discrimination Lawsuit

Fife agreed to pay $40,000 to settle a race discrimination lawsuit.

Kenneth Davis, a black employee in the company, filed the lawsuit, claiming that Fife denied him to a permanent warehouse position and then terminated his temporary position based on his race.

Fife, based in Washington, is specialised in providing freight transportation service to Alaska.

The company also agreed to provide training to managers, supervisors and human resources staff.
