TCS discrimination investigation – US agency investigations on charges of discrimination; The company invites the allegations “indisputable, misleading”

Tata Consultance services were accused of discrimination based on the race, age, and national origin, which prompted the investigation by the United States Employment Opportunities Committee. Information Technology Services Company denied these allegations.

According to a report issued by Bloomberg, former employees are largely professionals from non -South Asia ethnic backgrounds over the age of 40. They said that TCS targeted them to lay off the workers, but they survived their Indian colleagues. They indicated that some of them were working on H-1B workers x-made visas.

The employees began to file complaints against TCS in late 2023. The investigation began during the Joe Biden administration and continued during the era of President Donald Trump.

However, TCS denied any violations. A spokesman for the allegations of “illegal discrimination” said that there is no controversy and misleading. “The allegations stating that TCS is involved in illegal discrimination is something that is not worthy and misleading. TCS has a busy record of being equal opportunities in the United States, as it embraces the highest levels of integrity and values ​​in our operations.”

Three former TCS workers made similar claims in the UK as well, saying that they were discriminated against age and citizenship, as reported by the Guardian. TCS rejected these allegations in a response to the court, where the employees complained.

In April 2024, American actor Seth Multon urged EEOC to open an investigation into TCS due to discrimination charges. Molton said that TCS behavior may have led to discrimination and “the potential use of American work visa programs designed to fill the shortcomings of employment.”

Earlier in February, there were reports that TCS used a large-handed L-1A visa. Some previous employees claimed that the company used it to circumvent the H-1B rules. TCS has denied any violations.

Trump, earlier in the year, appointed Andrea R. Lucas as EEOC president. Lucas pledged to intensify investigations into discrimination against American workers.
