Judge rules in favour of Oracle in Labor Department’s $400 million pay bias lawsuit

A labour department judge in the United States has ruled in favour of Oracle, saying technology giant had not discriminated against women and minorities, including Indians and African Americans, in its pay structure.

The matter dates back to 2014, when the US Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) audited the California-based firm and later sued it in 2017, alleging that the company owed women and minorities $400 million in unpaid wages between January 2013 and December 2016.
