What are examples of workplace discrimination in Irvine?
Workplace discrimination can take place in several different ways. Victims of discrimination all experience different types of discrimination at work. It includes, but is not limited to:
- Physical violence: this includes assault, such as battery
- Sexual assault: this is one of the most traumatic experiences
- Threats
- Reducing an employee’s hours
- Reducing an employee’s pay
- Wrongfully terminating an employee
- Failing to include the employee in work meetings
- Denying the employees the right to go on family medical leave
- Treating the employee differently than other employees
How do you prove age discrimination?
Age discrimination refers to discrimination against an employee simply because of their age. This means that because the employee is considered older, or younger, the employer would act differently. For example, if the employer fails to promote an employee because of their age, the employer could be responsible for workplace discrimination.
How do you prove racial discrimination?
Racial discrimination occurs when the employer makes jokes, harasses the employee, or uses racial slurs that create an uncomfortable work environment. For example, if the employer fails to promote an employee, or feels to hire an employee because they belong to a specific racial group, the employer could be held responsible for workplace discrimination.
How do you prove gender discrimination?
Gender discrimination has very specific scenarios. The most common scenario in the workplace occurs when an employer fails to provide promotion opportunities for a female because they are pregnant, or are planning to be. This is a very common experience that several females experience in the workplace.
How do you prove disability discrimination?
The most common incident involving disability discrimination is when the disabled employee is denied adequate reasonable accommodations simply because of their disabled status. This includes both physical and mental disabilities.
How do I prove workplace discrimination in Irvine?
In order to prove discrimination, it helps to have a paper trail that shows the discriminatory motive the employer, supervisor, or manager had. For example, some types of records that our attorneys look at include:
- The employee’s personnel records
- The employee’s performance report
- The employee’s reviews from other coworkers
- The employee’s wages
- The employee’s hours worked
- Any emails sent to and from the employee
- Any texts sent to and from the employee
- Meeting minutes and notes
What should I do if I have experienced workplace discrimination in Irvine?
If you have experienced discrimination at work, you must make sure that you act fast to hold your employer responsible for their actions. If you don’t act fast, you could lose your right to file a lawsuit or claim. You should:
- Report the discrimination. Our top-rated Irvine attorneys recommend that you report the discrimination first internally to your human resources department. Usually, discrimination is handled internally, and an employee could settle with their employer instead of going to trial.
- Make sure that you have all records. Document the specific incident of discrimination and any other co-workers who may have been a witness to the discrimination.
- If you have been injured physically, make sure that you get medical help. Sexual assault fueled by discriminatory motives is very common in the workplace. Get the medical care you need, and medical expenses are recoverable.
- Contact a highly-rated Irvine workplace attorney. An Irvine workplace attorney will better assist you in getting the care that you need. Sometimes, when employees are not represented by an attorney, employers may try to get them to sign settlement amounts without fully disclosing what rights their signing away.
- If you have had a traumatic experience dealing with your employer’s discriminatory tactics, make sure that you get psychological assistance. Anxiety and PTSD are common types of emotional distress that an employee may suffer.
