Temp agency accused of job bias in Maryland suit
A Towson based temporary staffing firm is accused in federal court of racial discrimination to please employers who want a "bubbly blonde" hire. The ACLU of Maryland seeks reinstatement for Mary K. Spence and calls for policies against discrimination, training, and damages. The suit names Uniforce Temporary Services, its affiliates, and officials, with offices in Baltimore and surrounding areas. Spence alleges a white employee referred a black applicant for a long term receptionist role who was sent home after managers pursued a "bubbly blonde" stereotype.
