Despite the progress that we have made as a society, workplace discrimination is still a serious problem. Discrimination can leave you feeling hurt and powerless. You shouldn’t have to put up with any mistreatment as a prospective or current employee based on your protected status.
People may be illegally discriminated against on the basis of:
This is not an exhaustive list of legally protected classes. As an employee, you have the right to be free from unlawful discrimination or harassment. If you are a job applicant, you are legally protected from discrimination during your hiring process.
It can be helpful to create a record of any instances of discrimination. Write down when the actions occurred, who was involved, and the names of any witnesses.
Many state and federal laws are in place to protect employees from workplace discrimination. State laws tend to vary regarding who is a protected individual and how the laws apply to employers.
The vast majority of workplace discrimination and harassment laws were enacted after the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960’s. They offer protection for many personal characteristics but not for relevant workplace concerns such as job performance or attitude.
You may be protected under:
