Immigration Discrimination

Immigration discrimination occurs when individuals are treated unfairly in the workplace or in society based on their immigration status, nationality, or perceived foreignness. This can manifest as biased hiring practices, unequal pay, or hostile work environments. In the context of immigration law, such discrimination is illegal under certain federal and state laws, which protect workers against unfair treatment based on their ethnicity or immigration status. It is essential for employers to ensure fair practices to foster an inclusive work environment and comply with legal standards.
