On November 29, 2011, the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (“OFCCP”) filed an administrative complaint with the Office of Administrative Law Judges (“OALJ”) against Cargill Meat Solutions Corporation (“Cargill”) seeking to rescind over $550 million in contracts held by the Company. According to a press release issued by OFCCP, Cargill allegedly discriminated against 4,069 qualified female and minority applicants for entry-level production jobs at its Springdale, Arkansas establishment. OFCCP filed the complaint after it was unable to secure a Conciliation Agreement with Cargill.
