California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA)

The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) is a law that protects individuals from discrimination in employment, housing, and public accommodations based on certain characteristics, such as race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and age. It aims to ensure everyone has equal opportunities and fair treatment in these areas. FEHA allows individuals to file complaints against employers or landlords who violate these protections, promoting a more inclusive and equitable society. Essentially, it establishes rights and obligations to prevent discrimination in various aspects of life within California.
