What is Employment Discrimination?
Employment discrimination, or workplace discrimination, is defined as treating an employee negatively because of skin color, age, gender, race, religion, origin, or disability. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 states that it is illegal to discriminate based on any of the factors listed above. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has more information about the specifics of the law.
