Pakistan, March 19 -- Google has agreed to pay $28 million to settle a lawsuit claiming racial bias. This lawsuit alleges that the tech company favored white and Asian employees over Hispanic, Latino, Native American, and other minority workers regarding pay and job opportunities. The settlement has received preliminary approval and addresses issues raised in a case that began in 2021.

The lawsuit, filed by former employee Ana Cantu, argued that Google's pay practices were unfair. Cantu's team highlighted a leaked document showing pay discrepancies among different ethnicities. Despite performing similar jobs, minority workers were reportedly given lower starting salaries and job levels compared to their white and Asian peers.
