Standing Strong Against Workplace Race Discrimination

That act gives you the right to take action against your employer. The Houston racial discrimination lawyers at Kennard Law, P.C., are ready to stand by your side.
For a consultation to discuss your case with a dedicated employee rights attorney, contact our firm today. We advise and represent employees throughout Texas.
Forms Of Race Discrimination In The Workplace
Blatant racism in the workplace still exists. There are still employees who are the target of racial epithets from co-workers and supervisors, and these employees have the right to seek compensation for the mistreatment they have encountered. However, much of the race discrimination that occurs in the workplace today is more subtle.
For example, an employee may be given the most undesirable tasks for no other reason than his or her race. Similarly, an employee may receive more intense scrutiny and disciplinary action because of his or her race, ultimately leading to wrongful termination. Cases of employees being denied promotions or raises due to their race are also far too common.
Fighting Back Against National Origin Discrimination
Just because you or members of your family come from a country other than the United States does not give your employer or co-workers the right to discriminate against you. Federal law protects employees and job applicants from discrimination based on national origin.
This kind of discrimination is not acceptable, and if you have experienced it, do not hesitate to contact a skilled and knowledgeable employment law attorney.

Led by a lawyer who is board-certified in labor and employment law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, we are able to quickly spot the signs of race discrimination and national origin discrimination.
