What employment discrimination looks like
Directly from the EEOC, here are the different forms of employment discrimination that can occur:
- Unfair treatment based on your race, religion, sex, etc.
- Harassment by mangers, coworkers or anyone in the workplace.
- Denial of a reasonable workplace change that you request due to your religion or a disability you have.
- Improper questions about your genetic or medical background that are not necessary for the job.
- Retaliation because you complained about issues on the job.
If you have experienced any of these injustices at work, reach out to our team today. We fully understand the laws laid out by the EEOC and can use them to defend you in a court of law. With our team on your side, your employer can be held accountable for their actions and you can be compensated for any lost wages or even a lost role.
