Employment

Individuals seeking employment or existing employees pursuing a promotion are entitled to have their resumes considered without regard to race, sex, religion, national origin, or sexual orientation. Similarly, disabled individuals are also entitled to anti-discrimination protections during the application and promotion process. Despite the existence of Federal and State anti-discrimination provisions, however, employers will all too often discriminatorily deny their applicants and employees a position or a promotion.

In addition to their rights against discrimination, employees of a company have the right to work in a safe and harassment-free environment. Disabled employees are also entitled to reasonable workplace accommodations so that they can effectively perform the functions of their employment. Although employers are mandated to facilitate such a work setting for their employees, they will in many instances fail to do so without excuse. Individuals who have been denied a position discriminatorily, subjected to an unsafe work environment, or harassed in the workplace, are best served by retaining the assistance of an attorney.
