What Does Workplace Discrimination Look Like?
Workplace discrimination takes many forms. It may look like not getting hired, being paid less, or facing harassment because of one or more protected characteristics. These characteristics include race, ethnicity, sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexuality, religion, disability status, age, and veteran status, among others.
Steps to Take If You Experience Workplace Discrimination
Facing discrimination can take a serious emotional toll. If you have experienced workplace discrimination, you may feel there is nothing you can do about it. This is not the case.
Follow these steps:
- Report the event to the employer’s human resources department. If possible, obtain a copy of this report.
- Document what you experienced. Keep pertinent emails and texts. Note the date and time of the incident(s) and who could have witnessed them.
- You may file a claim with the California Labor Commissioner’s Office of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) through their online portals.
- Consider consulting a legal professional like our San Diego discrimination lawyers at M&A Law Offices. They can offer crucial guidance and pursue various legal remedies.
Available Damages & Remedies
Many damages and remedies are available in workplace discrimination cases. You may recover past or future wages, legal fees, and damages for the distress the discrimination caused.
Beyond these things, you may also:
- Receive the training or promotion you were wrongfully denied
- Be rehired by or reinstated to your company
- Get the accommodations necessary for you to perform your job
- Make your employer institute beneficial policy changes
