Discrimination against employees or job applicants based on race, religion, or nationality is illegal.

When employers violate state and federal laws regarding discrimination, they face the consequences of stiff legal and financial penalties as well as bad publicity and public regard. 

Equal Employment Opportunity laws provide remedies for employees who have been victims of workplace discrimination. These remedies include back pay, restoration of their original job if they were discharged or reassigned, a court order prohibiting the discrimination, and compensation for pain and suffering. A Santa Clarita discrimination attorney at Markson Pico LLP can advise you of all the legal implications involved in any case of workplace discrimination that you have suffered.
