Federal judge Susan Illston has certified a class action against the giant package hauler. "Among other things, the litigation seeks to stop FedEx from requiring workers to take a 'basic skills test' in order to get certain promotions. Class counsel contend that blacks and Latinos are failing the test more often than their counterparts, and by a statistically significant margin."
