The punitive charges paid under the Civil Rights Act of 1991 is $50,000 per violation, this covers an employee number of 14 - 100. While companies with over 500 employees are expected to pay $300,000 per violation.

Since Cellant Solar Energy, Inc. is involved in a case of intentional employee discrimination and it has 800 permanent employees working in different departments. The maximum punitive damage that they will have to pay under the Civil Rights Act of 1991 is $300,000.
