-
Race and color

Sex and gender

EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION
Federal law prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of race, gender, national origin, citizenship, religion, disability, age (for workers who are 40 years old and above), or pregnancy. Employers are also prohibited from retaliating against employees who pursue their rights by filing claims or complaints related to discrimination or by taking advantage of benefits available under the Family and Medical Leave Act.
SEXUAL HARASSMENT
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act aims to protect workers from sexual harassment at work. It prohibits unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature that turns the workplace into a hostile or offensive environment—whether that conduct comes from a supervisor, a co–worker, or even non–employees.
