Description

Argued September 3, 1998 Garland, Circuit Judge: Plaintiffs are black American citizens of Panamanian or Hispanic national origin who have long worked for the Panama Canal Commission and its predecessor, the Panama Canal Company (together, the ""PCC"" or ""Canal Commission""). The PCC pays them sub-stantially less in salary and benefits than it pays other American citizens working at the same jobs-the overwhelm-ing majority of whom are white, non-Panamanians. The plaintiffs allege this pay differential constitutes race and national origin discrimination in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Pub. L. No. 88-352, 78 Stat. 241 (codified as amended at 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (1994)). The district court granted summary judgment in favor of the PCC and dismissed plaintiffs' complaint. We reverse. I.
