AVON — Ten former Wal-Mart workers who are primarily Muslim and from West Africa have filed discrimination complaints against three stores in Western Colorado, saying managers treated them differently from other workers and denied them scheduled prayer breaks.
The workers, who filed the complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, said store management changed in January 2009, and the new managers suddenly started punishing and, eventually, firing them after they’d worked for years for Wal-Mart.
