Accounting Firm Sued for Sex Discrimination In Pay & Promotions

Accounting Firm KPMG is charged in a class action lawsuit with sex discrimination in pay, promotions and pregnancy leave.  Among the suit's claims are that women with children are treated as second-class employees and that more than 50% of the firm's employees are women but only about 18% are in management positions.
