What Is Employment Discrimination?
Employment discrimination occurs when an employer treats an employee or job applicant unfairly based on characteristics such as race, gender, age, disability, or religion. This type of discrimination can prevent individuals from having equal opportunities to succeed in the workplace. Examples of employment discrimination include:
- Denying promotions based on gender
- Refusing to hire someone because of their race
- Paying employees differently for the same work due to their age or gender
- Harassment in the workplace, such as unwanted comments or behavior targeting an employee’s race, sex, or physical condition
What’s an EEOC Charge?
An EEOC charge is a formal complaint filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). It’s often the first step in pursuing a discrimination case. The EEOC investigates employment discrimination cases and monitors whether employers comply with anti-discrimination laws. Our team at Roberts Law helps clients file EEOC charges accurately and on time. This ensures compliance with legal requirements and strengthens their case.
We Fight Race Discrimination
Racial discrimination in the workplace remains a widespread issue. From being overlooked for opportunities to hearing offensive comments, race-based discrimination can make any work environment unbearable. Roberts Law’s racial discrimination attorneys have extensive experience handling such cases. We’re adept at collecting crucial evidence – such as company policies, emails, and witness statements – to prove unfair treatment and protect our clients’ rights.
Addressing Sex Discrimination
Sex discrimination, including gender discrimination at work, occurs when individuals face unequal treatment due to their gender, sexual orientation, or gender identity. This can manifest in several ways, from unequal pay to sexual harassment. We’re committed to holding employers accountable for these actions. Our attorneys are skilled in handling cases related to pay disparities, harassment, and unfair policies. Let us help you.
Combatting Age Discrimination
Age discrimination in employment impacts individuals 40 years of age or older, as protected under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). It could mean being passed over for a promotion, losing your job, or being denied training opportunities due to age. We won’t let that happen to you. Our team fights for clients experiencing such bias, ensuring their rights are respected and pursuing appropriate compensation. We firmly believe that every professional – young and old – deserves fair treatment.
Your Recourse Against Retaliation in the Workplace
Retaliation in the workplace often follows when an employee reports discrimination or harassment. Employers may retaliate through unjust demotions, terminations, or negative performance reviews. At Roberts Law, we shield our clients from retaliatory actions. Retaliation is illegal, and our attorneys will guide you through taking legal action against employers who violate your rights.
Defeating Disability Discrimination
Disability discrimination happens when employers treat individuals unfairly due to a physical or mental condition. Even more troubling, employers may refuse to accommodate reasonable requests, like modified workspaces or schedules. Our disability discrimination attorneys focus on fighting these injustices. With our expertise, you don’t have to face the challenge of standing up to employers alone. We’ll ensure their actions are held up to legal scrutiny, helping you seek justice.
