For Title VII Claim to Stand, Delayed Training Must Damage Employment Terms or Conditions: Seventh Circuit | Practical Law
In Chaib v. Indiana, the US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit affirmed the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the employer in this Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII) gender and national origin discrimination, hostile work environment and retaliation case bought by a former employee. Among other things, the Seventh Circuit held that for a disparate treatment denial of training claim to stand, the employee must alert the employer to the denial of training and provide evidence that the delay between the notice and the receipt of training damaged the terms or conditions of her employment.
