FAQ
Discrimination at work Employees should talk to their employer first to try and sort out the problem informally. You may also want to read about workplace disputes. If things cannot be sorted out informally, talk to Acas , Citizens Advice or a trade union representative.
Consider Speaking Up: If you feel safe doing so, consider addressing the behavior directly with your manager. Use ``I'' statements to express how their actions affect you. Report the Behavior: If the discrimination continues, consider reporting it to HR or a higher authority within your organization.
Be pro-active. Report incidents of inappropriate, discriminatory, harassing or abusive behavior to your supervisor, Human Resources department, union, or management. If you experience or witness discrimination or harassment contact EEOC or your local human rights commission.
The answer depends on your claims and willingness to pursue litigation. If your claims are strong and you are invested in the litigation process, it can be very “worth it” to feel you are standing up for accountability, getting compensation for your injuries, and incentivizing the company to change its ways.
Discrimination isn't always obvious – it can be subtle and insidious, disguised as jokes or political opinions. Talking to people who've experienced racism is the best way to increase your understanding of the issue. Even if we can't walk a mile in someone else's shoes, we can certainly do more listening.
Types of discrimination Direct discrimination. Direct discrimination happens when an employer treats an employee less favourably than someone else because of one of the above reasons. Indirect discrimination. Harassment. Victimisation. Being treated unfairly for other reasons.
Report workplace discrimination Report discrimination to the EEOC. Use the EEOC's public portal to follow the complaint process. Submit an online inquiry. Schedule an interview with someone from the EEOC.
Medical Condition Discrimination and Harassment Discrimination on the basis of a medical condition can include any adverse employment action, including failure to hire, termination, failure to promote, paying an employee less than other similar employees and permitting harassment in the workplace.
Examples of Employment Discrimination Failure to hire. Harassment. Quid pro quo: Conditioning employment or promotion on sexual favors. Hostile Work Environment: Continuous actions and comments based on protected characteristics that create an uncomfortable and hostile workplace.
Evidence takes several forms. It includes your testimony, which is the very first evidence gathered by EEOC. It also includes written materials such as evaluations, notes by your employer, letters, memos, and the like. You will be asked to provide any documents you may have that relate to your case.
