The Justice Department announced today that it secured a settlement agreement with Key Fortune Inc., doing business as Express Employment Professionals (Express), a staffing company in Rancho Cucamonga, California. The agreement resolves the department's determination that Express discriminated against a worker because of her immigration status by refusing to continue to honor her valid document that showed her permission to work in the United States. The agreement also resolves the department's determination that Express refused to place her on an assignment until she presented a specific document showing her future permission to work.
