Description: Dayton, Ohio civil rights lawyers represented Plaintiff who sued Defendant on an employment discrimination theory.
This case was filed in the Montgomery County Common Pleas Court, 2022 CV 04488 and was removed to federal court by Defendant.
Employment discrimination law is a body of law that protects employees from discrimination in the workplace. In the United States, the most important employment discrimination laws are Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA), the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), and the Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA).
These laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, and sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions). They also prohibit retaliation against employees who have opposed discrimination or filed a discrimination complaint.
Employment discrimination can take many forms, including:
Hiring discrimination: An employer refusing to hire someone because of their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or sex.
Firing discrimination: An employer firing someone because of their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or sex.
Pay discrimination: An employer paying someone less than someone else of the opposite sex for doing the same work.
Harassment: An employer or coworker creating a hostile work environment based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or sex.
If you believe that you have been discriminated against in the workplace, you should speak with an experienced employment discrimination attorney. An attorney can help you understand your legal rights and options and can represent you in a lawsuit if necessary.
Here are some of the consequences of employment discrimination:
Financial losses: Employees who have been discriminated against may suffer financial losses, such as lost wages, lost benefits, and legal fees.
Emotional distress: Employees who have been discriminated against may suffer emotional distress, such as anxiety, depression, and stress.
Damage to reputation: Employees who have been discriminated against may suffer damage to their reputation, which can make it difficult to find a new job.
Loss of job opportunities: Employees who have been discriminated against may be denied job opportunities, which can have a significant impact on their career.
If you believe that you have been discriminated against in the workplace, it is important to take action. You can file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or with your state's fair employment practices agency. You can also file a lawsuit in court.
It is important to note that the statute of limitations for employment discrimination claims varies depending on the law that was violated. For example, the statute of limitations for a Title VII claim is 300 days from the date of the discrimination.
If you have been discriminated against in the workplace, you should speak with an experienced employment discrimination attorney as soon as possible. An attorney can help you understand your legal rights and options and can represent you in a lawsuit if necessary.
