Suit challenges use of fake job testers to prove bias
In Chicago, 1995, Lolita Pierce and Eve Loftman were used as employment testers by the Legal Assistance Foundation to probe discrimination at a company. Guardian Security Services sues testers and the foundation, claiming fraud, while a federal judge previously tossed a discrimination claim by the testers. The EEOC dropped a similar action, highlighting a lack of clear federal law on employment testers. Civil rights advocates defend testers as needed tools, though legality remains unsettled.
