RACIAL DISCRIMINATION

In California, it is illegal to discriminate against you because of your race or color. FEHA and Title VII protect against discrimination in work place on basis of race or color. Call our San Diego Employment and Racial Discrimination Attorney to know more about your rights.

Race - Race is interpreted broadly to mean classes of persons identifiable because of their ancestry or ethnic characteristics.

Race and color
Race and color, while often considered synonymous, are distinct concepts. Both are listed separately as protected categories in Title VII and FEHA. Thus, although such claims are rare, the color of one’s skin - as opposed to his or her race - may form the basis for a discrimination claim, even if alleged against a member of the same race.

Title VII also prohibits employment decisions based on stereotypes and assumptions about abilities, traits, or the performance of individuals of certain racial groups.

Racial Harassment – Likewise, your employer may not make racial epithets, slurs, or jokes directed towards your race. Racial Harassment is no joke. Call our San Diego Employment and Racial Harassment Attorney to know your rights.
