Mark Reid, a former Home Depot employee, filed a racial discrimination suit against Home Depot through the EEOC. Reid claimed his supervisors made frequent racially derogatory comments and racial epithets. When he complained, Home Depot fired him. To settle the case, Home Depot paid Reid $125,000 and agreed to provide anti-discrimination training for employees and managers at the store where Reid worked. This was Home Depot's second racial discrimination settlement with the EEOC.
