Employment Gender Discrimination Attorneys
In 2011, gender identity and gender expression were included in California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) as protected classes. While it has taken too long to instill legal ramifications, discrimination against employees and employment applicants based on their gender affiliation is now prohibited. If you have been subject to harassment and/or discrimination in the workplace because of your gender, contact an employment gender discrimination attorney at 415-981-1850. Examples of sex discrimination include:
- Failure to interview an applicant based on gender
- Denial of equal treatment
- Continuous workplace harassment by co-workers and/or supervisors
- Denial of fair salary
- Denial of employee benefits
- Denial of adequate training
- Refusal of promotions
- Denial of merit-based raises or bonuses
- Denial of family, medical or maternity leave
- Demotion
- Termination

Workplace racial discrimination matters are taken on contingency, and you will never be required to pay attorney’s fees unless we obtain favorable results on your behalf.
