EEOC Sues Extended Stay Hotels for Sex Discrimination

The EEOC has sued Extended Stay Hotels for allegedly paying their male employees higher wages than their female employees, even though they all performed equal work, in violation of the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.  Latoya Weaver worked as a guest services representative for five years at Extended Stay Hotels.  Extended Stay Hotels, however, allegedly paid new male employees more than it paid Ms. Weaver, even though they allegedly performed equal work.  See EEOC v. HVM L.L.C., No. 8:13-cv-01980 (D. Md.).
