Recent events have brought a great deal of attention to the topic of reverse discrimination. For many people, this is an emotional issue that strikes at the very heart of our society's definition of fair treatment.

Discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex/gender, religion, age and disability is prohibited by California and federal law, including the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and others. These laws apply to all, as the denial of equal employment opportunity is universally damaging.

Protecting All Workers From Bigotry — Including Reverse Discrimination

Stereotypes are never a legitimate reason for an employment decision. Neither is a misplaced bias in favor of members of certain groups because of past discrimination. Nevertheless, it has been demonstrated that innocent people can and do face reverse discrimination in hiring, termination, compensation, opportunities for promotion and other employment matters.

Unfortunately, many people find themselves facing reverse discrimination in the workplace, including harassment. When employees complain about this treatment, they all too often find themselves facing retaliation. In some cases, the workplace atmosphere has become so intolerable that it has risen to the level of constructive discharge.

If you have faced discrimination or harassment in these circumstances, the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the California Fair Employment and Housing Commission (FEHC) can take action on your behalf. However, it may be in your best interests to retain the services of your own lawyer.
