Hostile work environment cases may develop in all types of businesses. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination are two statutes that protect employees from discrimination.
Workplace discrimination includes:
- Age discrimination
- Sex and gender discrimination
- National origin and racial discrimination
- Religious discrimination
- Pregnancy discrimination
- Disability discrimination
- Sexual orientation discrimination
If you are a worker who has experienced workplace discrimination, you should speak with a lawyer to evaluate whether your rights have been violated. If you are an employer, you should develop policies that will reduce the likelihood of discrimination occurring in your workplace.
