Employment Discrimination Laws

Employment discrimination laws are designed to protect workers from unfair treatment based on characteristics such as race, gender, age, disability, religion, or national origin. These laws ensure that job applicants and employees are not discriminated against in hiring, promotions, job assignments, or termination. Key laws include the Civil Rights Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Organizations must create a fair workplace, and individuals can seek legal remedies if they experience discrimination, ensuring everyone has equal opportunities in employment.
