Illegal employment discrimination occurs when an employer takes an adverse action against an employee that significantly affects the employee’s terms or conditions of employment and is based on a legally protected class.
- Discrimination can be based on sex, sexual orientation, race, color, national origin, religion, age, disability, marital status, or any other protected category depending on applicable law.
- Typical adverse actions may include failure to hire, termination, demotion, failure to promote, discipline, reduction of pay or benefits, significant change or reduction of duties.
- It is illegal for an employer to retaliate or take any adverse employment action against an employee who either complains about discrimination or who participates in an investigation of discrimination.
