It is time to end workplace discrimination in Pasadena, CA

We know that workplace discrimination still exists. Sometimes, it is overt and obvious. Other times, it shows up in more subtle ways, including:

• Promotion and demotion decisions
• Pay raises and benefits
• During hiring and firing/layoff decisions
• In disciplinary proceedings

In many cases, reporting instances of discrimination or harassment can get a person fired. Retaliation for reporting these instances is illegal.

We know that there are federal and state protections in place to help workers. In California, it is illegal to discriminate in the workplace due to a person’s:

• Marital status
• Race and color
• Nationality
• Sexual orientation
• Pregnancy status
• Gender identity
• Disability
• Religion or creed
• Age

In 2018, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) brought over 48,000 cases against employers in race and sex discrimination cases alone. Another 24,000 cases were brought based on disability discrimination. California takes protections further and offers help for undocumented migrants against workplace discriminatory practices.

Pasadena Workplace sexual harassment happens all the time

While we are thankful that the “Me Too” movement brought the public knowledge that sexual harassment takes place at such a large scale, we recognize that there is still much work to be done.

• When more than 38% of women have experienced sexual harassment in the workplace, we know there is a systemic problem.

The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission tells us that sexual harassment shows up in many different forms. It is not always physical harassment, though any unwanted sexual contact is illegal. Sexual harassment also includes unwanted sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and verbal harassment of any kind.

Both discrimination and sexual harassment in the workplace can lead to severe emotional and psychological damage to the person who experiences it.
