Does a claim of wrongful termination under Title VII under federal law apply the same burden-shifting analysis as a racial discrimination claim?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Anderson v. MCM Constr., Inc., No. 2:10-cv-2833 LKK GGH PS (E.D. Cal. 2013):
A claim of wrongful termination under Title VII, follows the same burden-shifting analysis as a claim for racial discrimination. Aragon v. Republic Silver State Disposal, Inc., 292 F.3d 654, 659 (9th Cir.2002). For that reason, and because plaintiff's claim for wrongful termination under Title VII is essentially identical to his racial discrimination claim, his wrongful termination claim should not withstand defendant's motion.
