Tech company fined by DOJ over ‘whites only’ job posting

A tech company in Virginia has been fined thousands of dollars by the Justice Department over a job advert seeking “whites only” candidates.
In March 2023, a recruiter for Arthur Grand Technologies, an information technology services firm based in Ashburn, posted a job advertisement on the recruitment website Indeed for a business analyst for the company’s sales and insurance claims team.
The job posting said that the company was looking for “US Born Citizens [white] who are local within 60 miles from Dallas, TX [Don’t share with candidates]”, according to the DOJ.
Fined less than $40k. Great, problem fixed, everyone!
Yeah, that's not a fine, that's a fee.
Cost of doing business, as usual.
Racism removal only costs 40k? Perhaps we can get a loan.
It did say it had to pay that 31k to everyone who complained to the dept of labor. Now I take that as 31k per person, so if I am correct and that's a big if that could be a good chunk of money. All that being said, it's not enough.
