Discrimination
let one of our experienced employment attorneys represent you if you were fired from your job based on an unlawful reason
Every employee, regardless of their race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, age, disability, sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, medical condition, genetic information, marital status and military or veteran status has the legal right to work in a environment that is free from discrimination.
Unfortunately, workplace discrimination against employees occurs regularly in the workplace. Discrimination can be both, explicit or subtle. The discriminator can be your boss, supervisor, or co-worker and sometimes even your customers.
Discrimination against employees is illegal when it is based on protected characteristics such as an employee’s:
- Race or Color of Skin
- National Origin or Ancestry
- Religion
- Age (over age 40)
- Medical Condition, including Pregnancy
- Medical Disability
- Genetic Information
- Sex or Gender
- Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity
- Marital Status
- Military or Veteran status
Some examples of workplace discrimination include the following:
- Firing someone based on their protected characteristics
- Refusing to promote someone based on their protected characteristics
- Disciplining someone based on their protected characteristics
