Philip M. Berkowitz, a partner at Nixon Peabody, writes that the diversity practices of employers that seek to give favorable weight to race, ethnicity, and other protected characteristics, are now put under piercing scrutiny by the Supreme Court's reverse-discrimination decision last week in Ricci v. DeStefano . The ruling jeopardizes not only diversity consideration in hiring practices, it also heightens an employer's risk, when conducting a work force reduction, of seeking to maintain a diverse workplace by changing termination decisions when it appears that the reduction decisions would result in a statistically negative disparity against minorities.
