Upholding Employment Laws for a Fair Workplace

A key part of maintaining a safe, healthy, and respectful work environment is holding employers accountable when they violate employment laws.

Recognizing and Addressing Discrimination and Harassment in the Workplace

Discrimination and harassment in the workplace take many forms but share a common characteristic: they create a hostile work environment. Recognizing these behaviors is the first step toward addressing them.

Here are some signs of workplace discrimination and harassment:

• Unfair treatment due to race, gender, age, religion, disability, or sexual orientation.
• Offensive jokes, slurs, epithets, or name-calling.
• Physical assaults or threats.
• Intimidation, ridicule, or mockery.
• Insults, offensive objects, or pictures.
• Interference with work performance.

Facing discrimination or harassment in the workplace is devastating and stressful. However, it's important to speak up. Your bravery can help ensure a more inclusive and respectful workplace for everyone.

Two steps to take if you believe you have been a victim of discrimination or harassment in the workplace:

• Document the incidents: Keep a detailed record of each occurrence, including date, time, location, people involved, and the nature of the incident.
• Consult an employment law attorney: To get information regarding your rights in the workplace and your legal options for dealing with workplace violations, speak with a legal professional experienced in employment law.

We know how overwhelming it is to face workplace discrimination and harassment. You are not alone in this. Emejuru Law is here to help.
