EEOC alleges Sheetz unlawfully denied Indigenous and Black candidates employment due to criminal rec
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has alleged that Sheetz, a Maryland-based company, engaged in discriminatory hiring practices that disproportionately affected American Indian/Alaska Native, Black, and multiracial applicants. The EEOC complaint, filed on April 17, accuses Sheetz of maintaining a longstanding practice of screening out candidates with prior involvement in the justice system, including convictions and more. According to the complaint, Black candidates experienced a significant disparate impact from Sheetz’s criminal justice history probes, with a disproportionately high number of Black applicants being refused employment compared to White applicants. The background check vendor’s records revealed failure rates of over 14.5% for Black applicants, 13% for Indigenous candidates, and about 13.5% for multiracial candidates, whereas White applicants had a failure rate below 8%.
