Peoria Employment Discrimination Lawyers

Illinois Workplace Discrimination Attorneys

What is discrimination? It is the act of treating a person in a negative way based on federally protected classifications such as a person's race, sex, religion, age or disability.

Discrimination can happen anywhere and at anytime. The most common places for discrimination to occur is at the work or school environment. If you have been denied acceptance into a school or job due to one of the protected classes, then you have been discriminated. If you have been fired or laid off because of one of the protected classes, then you have been discriminated. If you have been denied or rejected for a promotion due to a protected class status, then you have been discriminated.

Employers cannot discriminate in hiring, promoting or firing employees. If they do, they will be violating federal regulation and guidelines such as the Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and other various human rights laws.
