The Law Offices of Yuriy Moshes represents victims of employment discrimination in the greater New York City area including all of the boroughs of New York City (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island) as well as Northern New Jersey, upstate New York, and Long Island.
In New York City, employment discrimination occurs when an employee or job applicant is treated unfavorably because of his or her race, skin color, national origin, gender (including gender identity), pregnancy, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation, alienage or citizenship status, marital status/partnership status, status as a veteran or active military service member, arrest or conviction record, caregiver status, credit history, unemployment status, salary history, and status as a victim of domestic violence, stalking, and sex offenses. It is illegal to discriminate in any facet of employment.
As a result, workplace discrimination extends beyond hiring and firing to discrimination that can happen to someone who is currently employed.
It is illegal to discriminate in any facet of employment on the basis of the above-listed classifications. As a result, workplace discrimination extends beyond hiring and firing to discrimination that can happen to someone who is currently employed.
Discrimination in any part of the employment relationship or hiring process is illegal. Workplace discrimination laws do not extend just to hiring and firing, but other areas of employment as well such as salary or pay, workplace benefits and perks, and job assignment.
Make sure you have all the proof and documentation your attorney for job discrimination will need to establish your case. This can be any written or oral material, including witness statements and offensive images or media you received.
These statements and other materials will need to be strong evidence that demonstrate you were:
Workplace discrimination can be difficult to recognize or prove since most employers will not directly admit that they are practicing unfair treatment due to sex, race, pregnancy, national origin, religion, et cetera.
That’s why in many cases, the objective of the employment discrimination lawyer will be to establish patterns of behavior on the employer’s part that back the worker’s claim. The more evidence we can present to the court, the stronger your chances will be to receive a favorable outcome.
Very rarely will an employer admit to taking an action for discriminatory reasons. It is important to understand what evidence can be used to file an employment discrimination claim so that you can spot discrimination when it occurs in your own workplace. There are three types of employment discrimination evidence: disparate treatment evidence, disparate impact evidence, and harassment evidence.
Disparate treatment occurs when an employer directly discriminates against an employee, and as a result, the employee is either not hired, fired, not promoted, or the employee encounters some other negative consequence. To find evidence of disparate treatment, it is important to record conversations, discuss the situation with your co-workers, and read between the lines to help you determine your employer’s real motive.
Does it seem as though your workplace is homogeneous or that certain groups of similar people receive all of the promotions and pay-raises? Disparate impact discrimination may be occurring at your workplace. Disparate impact discrimination occurs when an employer’s facially neutral policy or practice results in statistical discrimination among different types of employees.
Harassment occurs when an employer’s or a co-worker’s actions cause either physical, mental, or emotional harm to an employee in some way. The most commonly discussed form of harassment is sexual harassment, which can come in the form of either lewd jokes, offensive comments, or sexual assault. Other forms of harassment such as racial harassment are also commonplace and take the form of hazing environments or the use of racial slurs.
