Answer:
The following resulted in the case:
The plaintiff’s discrimination claim based on sexual orientation fell within the meaning of sex discrimination under Title VII.
Note: For the first time, the EEOC stated that a claim for sexual orientation discrimination is, by definition,also a claim for sex discrimination under Title VII
Step-by-step explanation:
It was said that the Complainant did not officially apply for the permanent position. This is because he had understanding that all temporary FLMs, including himself, were automatically considered for any open permanent FLM posting. But the Complainant claimed that the management could not give him permanent FLM because of his sexual orientation which he saw discriminatory. It was discovered that the Complainant was well-qualified for the position given his years of experience, and was familiar with the Miami facility.
Complainant said he was not selected because he was a gay.
