SILICON VALLEY RESIDENTS SHOULD NOT STAND FOR NATIONAL ORIGIN HARASSMENT AT WORK

National Origin harassment is against the law. Many Bay Area residents have faced discrimination because of their race or national origin at work. This behavior is illegal, and often linked to harassment based on national origin. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has settled a case against Wheeler Construction for $325,000 on behalf of Mexican employees. These employees allege that they faced national origin harassment at work. This harassment included a supervisor calling the employees derogatory names and telling Hispanic workers to “go back to Mexico.” This types of harassment is wrong and illegal. Do not stand for this type of behavior. Contact Bay Area employment lawyers today. Greenberg & Rudman LLP can be reached at 1-800-ALAWPRO or 1-800-252-9776. Call us for a free consultation.
