Workplace Discrimination Representation In Alabama
Under federal law, it is unlawful for an employer to take any employment action against an employee based upon who they are or what they believe.
An employer cannot discriminate against someone because of their age, race, sex, religion, pregnancy, disability, natural origin, or even your genetic code!
An employer cannot commit an adverse employment action against an employee for discriminatory reasons, such as:
- Termination
- Demotion
- Failure to promote
- Reduction in work hours
- Unfavorable job assignments
- Involuntary transfers
Even “at will” employees are entitled to the legal protections afforded by the following Federal Laws:
- Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
- Pregnancy Discrimination Act
- Age Discrimination in Employment Act
- Americans with Disabilities Act
- Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act
This means that employees have the right to sue employers who have engaged in discrimination, and to seek monetary damages and attorney’s fees.
