Discrimination and Harassment Attorneys In Clementon, NJ

Workplace discrimination in Clementon, New Jersey is illegal when it is based on the protected characteristics of employees. While multiple state and federal laws prohibit discrimination based on the protected classes of employees, this type of discrimination continues to persist. The prohibitions against workplace discrimination cover both members of the protected classes and those who are perceived to be members or who are associated with them. The discrimination attorneys at Swartz Swidler rely on their knowledge of anti-discrimination laws to help our clients to hold their employers accountable and to recover damages for their losses.

Employees and applicants who are members of protected groups are protected against discrimination. The prohibitions against workplace discrimination apply to all aspects of the employment relationship, including recruiting, advertising, interviewing, hiring, promoting, training, job placements, salaries, benefits, layoffs, and terminations. Multiple state and federal laws explicitly prohibit discrimination at work when it is based on any of the following characteristics:

  • Age
  • Color
  • Disability
  • Genetic information
  • Medical condition
  • National origin
  • Pregnancy
  • Race
  • Religion
  • Sexual orientation
  • Sex
  • Gender identity

Some of the relevant federal laws include the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, and others. The New Jersey Law Against Discrimination offers added protections to workers in Clementon, New Jersey against unlawful discrimination. The Employment Nondiscrimination Act is proposed federal legislation that would prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation. While this law has not been passed, the Supreme Court clarified that discrimination based on sexual orientation is a prohibited form of sex discrimination in its decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, Georgia in June 2020.

If your employer has discriminated against you because of your protected characteristics or relationship with a member of a protected class, you should talk to one of our employment and discrimination attorneys. We can review your case and explain whether it has legal merits. If it does, we can help you to gather the evidence that you need to support your claim and to file a discrimination charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the New Jersey Division on Civil Rights. If you are granted leave to file a lawsuit, we can help you to file a formal complaint and prosecute it in the federal or state court system.
