Our Experienced NYC Attorneys Can Help
State and federal laws protect workers from gender discrimination. Unfortunately, many victims of sexual harassment are reluctant to come forth with a claim, fearing retaliation and job loss.
Gender Discrimination claims are broken down into three general categories:
Refusal to Hire or to Offer Promotions or Fringe Benefits
Claims in which a company refuses to hire a man or woman because of his or her gender, or refuses to promote a person for that reason, or denies other types of job benefits (like sick leave, vacations, pension plans, work schedules, etc.)
Wrongful Termination
Claims in which an employee is fired because of her or his gender.
Hostile Work Environment / Harassment
Claims involving inappropriate behavior in the workplace, including disparaging or sexist comments about one gender or the other or abusive treatment aimed at only one gender.
