Harassment and Discrimination Based on Race, Ancestry, National Origin or Color

You do not have to tolerate racial discrimination and harassment in the workplace.

Discrimination and harassment relating to race, ancestry, national origin and color can take many forms. Whatever the reason behind the unfair treatment, workplace discrimination is illegal and you have a legal remedy.

Harassment can involve rude or offensive:

• Behavior
• Language

• Videos
• Comments
• Visual displays

Discrimination can involve adverse employment actions such as:

• Termination
• Denial of a promotion
• Demotion
• Refusal to hire
• Excessive and unfair criticism
• Reduced hours
• Bad schedules
• Assignment to menial or dirty tasks
• Removal of responsibilities
• Transfer to dead end positions
• False or unfair write ups
