Race Discrimination

You begin to notice that other employees not of your race are being treated better in the workplace. They are getting more money for the same job, more promotions, more overtime and more training, and better performance evaluations. Yet you are just as qualified, and maybe you are more qualified. Yet the people of another race are treated more favorably, just because of the color of their skin. That is not right, and it's illegal. You cannot be subjected to race discrimination at work.Federal Law, New York State Law, and New York City Law prohibit it.

Sometimes you tell us that you are subjected to a hostile environment based on your race at work. People are using those explicit offensive words, they are leaving offensive pictures on your desk, and sending you offensive emails. Or they use code words, but you and the harasser know what they mean, you don't have to spell it out when you want to insult someone because of the racial group they belong to. A hostile environment based on race is illegal under Federal Law, New York State Law, and New York City Law.
