Job Rights

Applied for work at NTT but got denied after a background check?

If you have a criminal record, your civil rights may have been violated, and you may be entitled to compensation.

Outten & Golden and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund are defending the rights of job applicants in Mandala v. NTT, a proposed class action challenging the way NTT uses criminal history records to deny jobs.

Outten & Golden's Recent Criminal History Discrimination Cases:

• O&G successfully sued the U.S. Census Bureau over its background check process, resulting in a groundbreaking $15 million settlement that gave 450,000+ Black and Hispanic Americans the opportunity to work on future census campaigns.

• O&G successfully sued the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA), after a Philadelphia bus driver had his employment revoked due to drug-related convictions on his background check. We recovered $3.6 million for affected job applicants, and SEPTA agreed to stop denying employment because of convictions, unless required by law.

• O&G recovered $1.5 million for job applicants who were unfairly denied employment by one of the country’s largest sports and entertainment venues. Our work also led the employer to change the types of interview questions they ask, and to allow applicants to see and dispute their background check results, before denying them a job.
