Consulting giant Deloitte will pay $21.5 million to settle allegations from the Department of Justice that it violated federal anti-discrimination requirements through its diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.

The DOJ alleged that Deloitte violated the False Claims Act, an anti-fraud law holding companies liable for defrauding contracts, by falsely certifying that it complied with anti-discrimination requirements attached to its federal contracts while discriminating against employees and applicants based on race or sex.
