California Race/Color Discrimination Lawyer

Discrimination in the workplace based on race or color occurs when an employee is subjected to differential treatment in the terms and conditions of employment based either in whole or in part on their race/color. If race or color is a motivation factor for the differential treatment, even if other legitimate factors exist, they are being discriminatory. Some examples of this include denial of promotion, denial of benefits of employment, termination, and even differential treatment towards an employee due to their relationship to persons of a certain race or ethnicity.

Racial/color discrimination involves racial animus, intentional acts, or policies that impact a racial group negatively even if that was not the intended result. Thus, differential treatment and disparate impact are two different ways an employee can experience racial discrimination. Race discrimination is intolerable in the workplace and has been illegal for decades.
