U.S. regulators filed a federal lawsuit in Chicago on Thursday alleging that Concentra Health Services Inc. improperly retaliated against an employee who complained about a supervisor’s favoritism to a sex partner.

The suit filed by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said the employee, Charles Horn, who worked as a paramedic at the company’s Elk Grove Village facility, was eventually fired.

The EEOC said employees who are at a disadvantage because managers obtain sexual favors from other employees are victims of sex discrimination under the law.
