civil rights in labor

Civil rights in labor refer to the legal protections that ensure fair treatment of workers regardless of race, gender, religion, or other personal characteristics. These rights prohibit discrimination, harassment, and unfair practices in hiring, promotion, pay, and employment conditions. They aim to create an equitable workplace where everyone has equal opportunity and safety. Key laws like the Civil Rights Act and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforce these protections, helping workers prevent discrimination and seek justice if their rights are violated.
