Macy’s, Inc. issued the following statement:

“Macy's has reached resolution with the New York State Office of the Attorney General related to allegations of racial profiling in our stores in New York. We also have settled in principle various lawsuits related to these allegations.

"To be clear, our company's policies strictly prohibit any form of discrimination or racial profiling and any occurrence of such behavior will not be tolerated in our organization.

“Moving forward, our company will be initiating a series of measures including enhanced training and education for our loss prevention and sales associates. We also will be adopting an expanded role for our security monitor to help ensure that we have the right policies and procedures in place, and that we are constantly reviewing our compliance with them.

“We at Macy’s are committed to fulfilling to the ideals of diversity, inclusion and respect that our company aspires to achieve – every day, in every store and office, with every customer and associate.

“Serving customers is what we are all about, and we will continue to work tirelessly to ensure that all customers feel welcome at Macy’s and are treated with respect. Our company has a long tradition of setting the gold standard in how we operate. We were among the first retail companies to establish a strong position on diversity and inclusion. We have a proven track record of reflecting the diverse communities we serve in every aspect of our business – including hiring, associate development, purchasing, community support, visual presentation and advertising. Our plans for moving forward further reinforce that commitment.”
