Lerner Associates Settles Sexual Discrimination Lawsuit

David Lerner Associates Inc. has agreed to pay $1.5 million to settle a sexual discrimination lawsuit.

On behalf of four women and others who were subject to the sexually hostile workplace, EEOC filed the lawsuit last February, claiming that a manager at the Darien office sexually harassed them and threatened them with violent retaliation when they complained.

Lerner Associates also agreed to revise its anti-harassment and anti-retaliation policies and revamp its sexual harassment training.
