Examples of Workplace Discrimination in California
Some of the workplace discrimination cases in California include the following.
- Racial Discrimination. This type of prohibited activity may occur in company pre-employment processes, as well as once an individual is employed by the business. This form of discrimination in the workplace includes any type of oppression, harassment, or retaliation based on a worker’s race.
- Age discrimination. It is unacceptable for an employer to take any negative actions against an employee on the basis of their age. If the employee is performing as well or better than younger employees, they may have grounds for an age discrimination case.
- Gender and sex discrimination. Although any type of discrimination based on gender is forbidden, there are a variety of ways this protection may apply. For example, it may seem obvious that an employer cannot subject a female worker to negative actions based on her gender.
- National origin discrimination. An employer may not discriminate against an employee or job applicant who is not a United States native. As long as the individual has the legal right to work in the U.S., they are afforded all the protections against discrimination as other employees.
