Aerospace Parts Manufacturer Refused to Hire Older Applicant After Asking His Age, Federal Agency Charged DETROIT – United Precision Products Co., Inc., a Michigan-based aerospace components manufac­turer, will pay $60,000 and provide other relief to settle a federal age discrimination lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the agency announced today. According to the EEOC’s lawsuit, United Precision Products violated federal law by refusing to hire an applicant because of his age. The then-64-year-old applicant applied through a staffing agency to be a machine operator. During a pre-employment interview, United Precision Products’ plant supervisor asked for the appli­cant’s age, date of high school graduation and driver’s license. Later, the plant supervisor told the staffing agency that the company was not going to hire the applicant because he did not have the desire for the job, the EEOC said.
