Both California and Federal law protect individuals against religious discrimination. An employer may not discriminate against an employee based on the ‘terms and conditions of employment’ in relation to individuals’ religious beliefs or practices. ‘Terms and conditions’ include hiring, firing, promotions, salary, etc.

If you have faced discrimination based on your religion, know that it is illegal. Religious discrimination is unfortunately not uncommon in the workforce. Recently, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and Howard Thompson filed a lawsuit against a medical supply company that was Thompson’s former company. Thompson, a Sabbatarian, alleged he was wrongfully terminated because he refused to work on his holy day. His former company required him to work on Sundays.

It is against the law for an employer to discriminate against an individual based on their perceived disability. Your employer may not discriminate against you in hiring, firing, advancement, compensation, training, etc. Even if you do not have a medical disability, if your employer discriminates against you because he/she believes that you do have a disability, this activity is against the law.

If you have been a victim of discrimination based on your perceived disability, know that you are not alone. Recently, a Hawaii car dealership settled a lawsuit brought by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The suit alleged that dealership discriminated against an applicant by not hiring him because of a perceived mental disability.

Sexual harassment in the workplace is against the law. Sadly, many individuals are wrongfully terminated for complaining about sexual harassment. This too, is illegal and you should know that you are entitled to a non-hostile work environment. This means that if your employer, or another co-worker, makes you feel uncomfortable because of your sex this may be illegal. The behavior must be ‘offensive’ and must also be severe and pervasive. Thus, a one-time passing comment may not be sexual harassment. Your employer may also not trade work privileges for sexual favors. This is also illegal sexual harassment.

If you have been a victim of sexual harassment, you should know it is illegal. If you have been fired because you have complained about this illegal behavior, your firing may also be against the law. This scenario is not uncommon. A car dealership in Pennsylvania recently settled a sexual harassment and wrongful termination suit brought by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The dealership paid $244,000 to settle the case. It was alleged that the manager of the car dealership sexually harassed female employees in the service department. He made explicit comments, references to oral sex, and touched himself inappropriately in front of the female employees. One woman was allegedly fired after she complained.

If you have faced sexual harassment at work, do not accept this behavior. Contact discrimination attorneys today. Call Law Offices of David H. Greenberg at 1-888-204-1014 for a free consultation. You can also visit us at www.discriminationattorney.com to learn more.

Your employer may not discriminate against you in California based on pregnancy, potential pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. If you are pregnant, your employer has the duty to accommodate your pregnancy. For example, if your doctor requests that you be transferred to a less dangerous or demanding job, your employer must accommodate you if it does not ‘unduly burden’ him/her.

Under California law, if you request pregnancy leave your employer must give you a leave of absence for a ‘reasonable period of time.’ A ‘reasonable period’ of time is the time that the woman is ‘disabled’ from her pregnancy. However, this time does not exceed four months and does not have to be paid.

If you have been a victim of pregnancy discrimination, know you are not alone- the law is on your side. An example is that the production companies of movie ‘Stranger than Fiction,’ Crick Pictures L.L.C. and Mandate Pictures L.L.C. have reached a settlement over a federal pregnancy discrimination suit brought by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Under the settlement, the production companies will pay $75,000 to a woman who was allegedly denied a job due to her pregnancy.
