At Manukyan Law Firm, our Glendale employment law attorney, along with the entire California workforce, knows that workplace discrimination is illegal. Both federal protections and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) safeguard employees from discrimination during their employment. While most federal laws cover only employers with at least 15 employees, FEHA applies to California employers with five or more full- or part-time employees.
Unfortunately, no matter the size of the company California employees work for, the signs of discrimination are often unclear or are disguised to avoid legal trouble.
Our Los Angeles County helps employees identify the signs of workplace discrimination, so they can hold the responsible parties liable for their unlawful actions or inaction in providing a remedy.
What are the Most Common Types of Workplace Discrimination in California?
All California employees have the right to work in a safe environment, free from discrimination.
Some common signs of discrimination in California may include, but are not limited to:
- Being disciplined for the same actions that are overlooked with other coworkers.
- Bullying and other physical harassment.
- Condescending remarks, belittling behavior, or other psychological harassment.
- Demotion or firing while bypassing common disciplinary procedures.
- Unequal discipline in the workplace.
- Unfair promotional practices, including equally or more qualified workers in specific groups being overlooked for promotions.
Since all California employers know that workplace discrimination is illegal, they will create a defense that helps protect the organization from a discrimination lawsuit by diminishing the employee’s account of these unlawful circumstances. If you believe your employer is fostering discriminatory workplace conditions, you have rights, and we can help enforce them.
