Types Of Discrimination

Discrimination based on one of the numerous protected classifications established by Title VII is illegal. These classifications include:

  • Age Discrimination

  • Race Discrimination

  • Gender / Sex Discrimination

  • National Origin Discrimination

  • Religious Discrimination

  • Sexual Orientation Discrimination

  • Pregnancy Discrimination

FMLA And Disability

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is a federal law that protects employees, when they meet certain criteria, when they need to be away from their jobs due to maternity leave, a family matter or medical issue. Several state and federal laws protect employees who are disabled from being treated differently in the workplace. Unfortunately, individuals who take FMLA leave or are disabled find themselves discriminated against at work. In some cases, this can be up to and including termination from the job. You should never have to face consequences simply because you exercised your rights in your employment. A lawyer at our firm can help you understand how we can take action to hold your employer responsible.
