We have a Fair Employment and Housing Attorney (FEHA Attorney) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act Attorney (Title VII Attorney) team throughout California ready to assist you. Contact us for help!

The Anti-Discrimination Workplace Rights Enforced by the CRD and EEOC

The California Civil Rights Department (CRD) and the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) are the state and federal agencies, respectively, that enforce and uphold the majority of California and federal laws that serve as a shield against discrimination at the workplace. California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and the federal Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (Title VII) are laws that prohibit discrimination and harassment at work against individuals that occur because of the workers’ membership in various protected classes (such as, for instance, race, ethnicity, sex, gender identity, age, religion disability and other categories). These laws are designed to safeguard employees in a protected class from discriminatory and unfair practices, some of which include, for example:

Discrimination based on sex, orientation, religion, race, color, or national origin
Retaliation against complaints of discrimination
Discrimination due to pregnancy
Not being paid the same as people of the other sex who do the same job as you
Discrimination against disabled employees and job applicants
Failure to provide reasonable accommodations, if you have a disability
Not getting paid the same as someone younger than you
Not getting benefits for early retirement or severance, if you sue for age discrimination.

If you believe you have been harassed or discriminated against at work because you are a member of a protected class, contact UELG’s Fair Employment and Housing Attorney (FEHA Attorney) and Title VII Attorney teams located in various locations in California, including our Los Angeles Attorneys.

Example of When to File a FEHA Claim or Title VII Claim for Workplace Discrimination?

You may not know when or if you should file a workplace discrimination claim. Here is an example of a scenario in which someone may wish file a workplace discrimination claim under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) or the federal Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (Title VII): Dawn works at a marketing company and she was fired in February. She hears from a fellow female coworker of the company that she was also fired two months after her. Then in July they learn that another female coworker, Claire, was fired from that company as well. Claire looks back and starts to realize that these women who were fired before her did their jobs well. They weren’t fired for their performance. And there are also a lot of men at the marketing company who were less qualified and they still have their jobs. She becomes suspicious. Three qualified female workers were let go and the men remain employed at the company. Claire knows that she had good job performance. She has reviews that prove that fact. This may be a good time to talk to a lawyer about bringing a claim under California’s FEHA or the federal Title VII laws.

What types of discrimination are prohibited by the FEHA and by Title VII?

California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and the federal Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (Title VII) each prohibit various types of workplace discrimination, which can include discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, age, genetic information, and retaliation for reporting discrimination or participating in discrimination investigations or lawsuits.

How do I file a discrimination complaint with the CRD or EEOC?

California’s Civil Rights Department (CRD) and the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) are the state and federal agencies, respectively, that enforce and uphold the majority of California and federal laws that serve as a shield against discrimination at the workplace. To file a complaint, you need to contact the CRD or EEOC and provide details about the discrimination you have experienced. This can usually be done online, by mail, or in-person at your local CRD or EEOC office. The CRD or EEOC will then guide you through the process of filing the formal charge.

How can an Employment Lawyer assist with a FEHA discrimination charge or a Title VII discrimination charge?

Employment Lawyers at UELG can provide crucial assistance throughout the process of bringing a workplace discrimination claim under California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA)(through California’s Civil Rights Department (CRD)), or a discrimination claim under the federal Title VII of the Civil Rights Act (Title VII) (through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)).
