DENVER MINT CLASS-ACTION SUIT APPEAL FAILS

  Two Denver newspapers reported this week on 
  developments in the class-action lawsuit filed
  by 32 female employees against the Denver Mint.  
  The Rocky Mountain News reported that "The federal 
  complaint against the Denver Mint alleging 
  pervasive sexual harassment and discrimination 
  against its female employees will go forward as a
  class-action suit, the Equal Employment Opportunity 
  Commission ruled.

  The commission's Office of Federal Operations rejected 
  the mint's appeal of class-action status for the case, 
  saying that there was no basis to overturn administrative 
  law Judge Dickie Montemayor's ruling that the complaint 
  filed by 32 female employees of the mint should be a
  class-action case."

  "The complaint filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity 
  Commission said female employees had been subjected to 
  repeated sexual insults and jokes, comments about their 
  looks and inferences about the men's sexual desires.

  The women also said they were denied promotions, training
  and raises."
