Protection Against Workplace Discrimination
One of the most common employment law issues that the average American worker will encounter is unfair and unlawful workplace discrimination. The United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has outlined and defined a number of federally protected classes that cannot be weighed negatively in workplace decisions.
You cannot be discriminated against due to one of the protected classes in matters regarding:
- Interviews and applications
- Hiring and firing decisions
- Training opportunities
- Promotion eligibility
- Pay increases or decreases
The fact that the EEOC must exist is a testament to its own importance. If there were no federal regulations in place to prevent workplace discrimination, it would surely be far more widespread than it is today. To this end, it is crucial that you always report any discriminatory behavior at your job. But it is also critical that you report the discrimination in the correct manner.
