The state's employers gi are paying more money in discrimination cases, ne with the state Human Affairs Commission col- rn lecting settlements in the last two months totaling more than a third of what was collected last ir year. cc In the fiscal year ending June 30, the commission won back $416,494 in disputed pay ct stemming from job discrimination suits. But in cc the last two months alone, the commission has tii won $163,557 in settlements. th Officials attribute the increase mainly to the fc commission's rise in profile following several racial complaints in the past year. di "If the current trend continues, we will intake G more than 2,000 cases this year in addition to tf what we already have on hand," Commissioner fe James Clyburn said of ail discrimination cases filed. hi The firing of Conway high school teacher ir frrppk VJ M.

Settlements of complaints can be awarded inpart or in-full by a court, or can be negotiated or declared no fault through the commission. The caseload has increased so much that Clyburn plans to lobby the General Assembly for money to create satellite centers to allow complaints to be registered via computer. That would eliminate the need to drive to Columbia, currently the state's main center, he said. The satellites would be set up in counties with human relations councils, such as Charleston, Myrtle Beach, Greenville, Florence and Spartanburg. Since its inception in 1972, the Human Affairs Commission has been the state's referral agency for discrimination cases. The federal government provides some of the cost for investigating complaints. pas became youth is losing touch of values.
