A former associate of HSBC Holdings Plc in the U.S. has filed a lawsuit against the bank, claiming discrimination based on his Jewish faith and his request for parental leave. Michael Krantz alleges that after he asked not to work on Jewish holidays, the bank reduced his working hours and assigned him less desirable tasks.
