Many types of treatment may qualify as employment discrimination
According to California law, discrimination occurs if a person is treated differently than another similarly qualified employee simply because of:
- Their gender
- Their national origin
- Their race
- Their disability
- The fact that they are over the age of 40
- Their religion
- Their sexual orientation
- Their gender identity and expression
- The fact that they are pregnant
- Their ethnicity
The next question many people have is what qualifies as “different treatment.” The law says it covers any decision that relates to the terms and conditions of employment. Some examples of this include:
- Hiring and firing
- Promotion and demotion
- Allocating raises and benefits
- Assigning work and projects
- Negotiating leaves of absence
Remember that employment discrimination does not have to involve overt prejudice against a particular group. Even policies that seem neutral can be discriminatory if they have a negative impact on members of certain groups.
