Description

Before: WEICK and MERRITT, Circuit Judges; ENSLEN, District Judge* Order Plaintiff, Regionald K. Brooks, appeals the dismissal of his claim that a Goodyear Tire & Robber Co. policy against dual employment has a disparate impact on blacks. The district court found that the statistics he presented were inadequate to establish a prima facie case, and we affirm on the basis of its opinion. From 1971 to 1975 Brooks worked as a janitor for Goodyear and, despite a Goodyear policy against dual employment, also as a full-time teacher in the Akron public school system. The dual employment policy had been instituted by Goodyear in the 1950's during a recession in the rubber industry, its justification being the company's sense that it was unfair for some to have two jobs when so many were unemployed. Goodyear also thought it would get better work efforts from its employees if they had no other jobs. In October 1975, Goodyear discovered Brooks' second job. After several meetings with him and union representatives, it put to Brooks the choice it puts to all employees discovered holding a second job: resign one or be discharged. Brooks refused to resign, and he was discharged in November 1975.
