CLARKSBURG — A man is suing Monongahela Power Company for wrongful termination of employment.
Randy Luna was employed by the defendant from Feb. 17, 2020, until Nov. 6, 2020, according to a complaint filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia.
Luna claims he divulged to Amber Moyers, his trainer, that he was Native American and Hispanic and after he told her that information, she and co-workers would mock his culture. Moyers also refused to provide Luna with one-on-one training and would ask him illegal questions and make comments about his accent, religion and background.
Luna complained to his supervisor, but after doing so, his work environment became worse. His employment was then terminated in November 2020.
Luna is seeking compensatory and punitive damages. He is represented by Stephanie L. Solomon of HKM Employment Attorneys LLP.
U.S. District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia case number: 1:21-cv-00083
