Employment Discrimination

Employment Discrimination laws prevent discrimination based on race, sex, religion, national origin, physical disability, and age by employers. Discriminatory practices include bias in hiring, promotion, job assignment, termination, compensation, and various types of harassment.
Many civil rights laws affect virtually every employment decision. These laws include:
- Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and 42 U.S.C. § 1981, as amended by the Civil Rights Act of 1991;
- The Age Discrimination in Employment Act;
- The Americans with Disabilities Act;
- The Equal Pay Act; and
- Other local, state and federal civil rights and anti-discrimination statutes.
Employers are not permitted to:
- Fire;
- Fail to hire;
- Fail to promote or give a pay increase to;
- Verbally or physically harass;
- Segregate or assign; or
- Otherwise differentiate a person because of his or her race, color, age, sex, pregnancy, ancestry, religion, disability, or national origin.
