Can a employer tell to spanish speaking people that they cannot speak spanish in the work place?
Or that they cannot speak spanish each other? Isn't this breaking some kind of law....EEOC???

Geez! Almost all of you were wrong! I'm suprised by your answers I must say. But according to EEOC...it's very much illegal or at the very least worthy of a MAJOR LAWSUIT!! Hence the following article
They were the go-to people when customers needed advice in Spanish about eyeshadow or perfume. But when Hispanic employees wanted to speak Spanish to one another, they say it was forbidden - even on lunch breaks.
Five women who worked for the cosmetics store Sephora in New York filed complaints, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) sued last fall on their behalf. They argue the policy is too restrictive and amounts to national-origin discrimination, which is illegal under the Civil Rights Act of 1964

I think any employer can say "No talking to each other while they're supposed to be doing their job."
But if they are telling ONLY the spanish speaking people, they cannot talk to each other and everyone else is allowed to talk as freely as they want, then Yeah, I think that's discrimination. Because it happens to be that they speak spanish because of their nationality. If two black persons were told not to speak to each other b/c they're black, that'd be one good lawsuit.
