However, Oracle denied the allegations.
Oracle values diversity and inclusion, and is a responsible equal opportunity and affirmative action employer.
The department said it tried for nearly a year to resolve Oracles alleged discrimination violations before filing the lawsuit.
Federal contractors are required to comply with all applicable anti-discrimination laws, said OFCCP acting Director Thomas M. Dowd.
We filed this lawsuit to enforce those requirements.
Also, the lawsuit could turn out to be costly for Oracle.
The Department of Labor noted that Oracle has a bevy of government contracts that could be at risk.
Oracle has received hundreds of millions in federal government contracts, said the Department of Labor.
