What was the holding of the case?


The Supreme Court held that since the company came forward with no evidence of legitimate motives for the discriminatory conduct, the company did not meet its burden of proof. As a result, the Court stated that it was not necessary to decide the degree to which the challenged conduct might have affected employee rights. The Court did not have to consider whether the conduct was "inherently destructive" or "comparatively slight.".
