The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has filed a lawsuit against Coca-Cola Beverages Northeast, Inc., alleging that the company violated federal law by excluding male employees from an employer-sponsored event in September 2024. The lawsuit claims that only female employees were invited to the event at Mohegan Sun Casino and Resort, where they received paid time off, hotel accommodations, and other benefits, which the EEOC argues constitutes sex discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Coca-Cola Northeast, through its attorney, maintains that the event complied with EEOC regulations and expresses disappointment with the lawsuit, stating confidence in its defense.
