Belgium: lawsuit against firm

The Center for Equal Opportunities has announced plans to sue the independent door/window constructor Feryn. The firm had announced it will not be recruiting Moroccan installers as it is not acceptable by the customers.

Feryn's decision has led to a join meeting between the Centar for Equal Opportunities, Feryn and Unizo (the independent employer's organization). At this meeting Feryn agreed to start off a plan to diversify their work force and not to exclude any qualified applicants based on origin.

However, these plans were rejected by the Regional Social Economic Board, which claims that the company is not doing enough on this issue.
