The Arizona Republic reported today that a Jeep tour company in Sedona will pay $35,000 to settle an age discrimination lawsuit brought by the EEOC in connection with the company’s alleged firing of a 75 year old woman and hiring a much younger replacement. As part of the deal, the company must also adopt an anti-discrimination policy and provide training for its employees involved in the hiring process.
