Equal Oportunity in the work place: How to deal with harassment and discrimination at work

Effects of Gender Discriminatio in the workplace

Lost Productivity: Victims of gender discrimination lose motivation and morale necessary to perform their jobs effectively.
Promotions: Stereotypical views regarding gender can cause supervisors to engage in the illegal practice of passing a person over for promotion due to gender.
Family Responsibilities: Women who have young children at home may experience push-back when interviewing due to family responsibilities.
Destruction: Those discriminated against may feel such strong resentment and loss of self-worth that they resort to destruction as a way to get back at the discriminatory employer or coworkers.

Have you been descriminated against?

If you believe that you have been discriminated against at work because of your race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information, you can file a Charge of Discrimination. All of the laws enforced by EEOC, except for the Equal Pay Act, require you to file a Charge of Discrimination with us before you can file a job discrimination lawsuit against your employer. In addition, an individual, organization, or agency may file a charge on behalf of another person in order to protect the aggrieved person's identity. There are time limits for filing a charge.
