Subject: Discrimination Allegation @SRI
Good morning,
It is with great trepidation that I write to you on thisoccasion. As we are aware, there has been a very serious allegationof discrimination lodged against SRI. We have always endeavored tohire the best qualified professional for each and every position.It appears we have a young talented African American male whoapplied for our Customer Service Supervisor position and was turnedaway for whatever reason. Ladies and gentlemen, we employ a zerotolerance policy toward this type of behavior. I am not sayingbecause someone cries wolf we need to acquiesce to their demands.The fact remains we do not have a Referral Policy but everyone whois referred or everyone we looked at was a white male. That alonesounds suspicious. Even the HR Policy we have in place is silent oncertain matters. While I would like to not believe it occurred,perhaps we need to focus on Ms. Cocoa and her ability to be in amanagement position at SRI. This complaint can have a detrimentaleffect on us and can cost SRI in the end. As a Board Member, Iwould like to call for an emergency meeting and decide how best toaddress this matter. We need to focus our attention on preservingour good name and perhaps taking serious action against Ms. Cocoa.We are a Company that prides itself on variety. It should apply toour recruitment activities as well. Thank you for your time andconsideration.
Respectfully yours,
Michael Munch
