New York National Origin Discrimination Lawyers
Also Serving New Jersey and Philadelphia
National origin discrimination refers to unlawful employment practices that treat someone unfairly because of their ethnicity, cultural heritage, ancestry, or place of birth. This form of employment discrimination can manifest in various ways, including the refusal to hire qualified candidates, unfair treatment of employees, or creating a hostile work environment based on stereotypes or prejudices. The lawyers in our New York office can help you fight these injustices.
A person may face jokes, slurs, or offensive comments about their accent or mannerisms. Employers may deny promotions or assign undesirable tasks solely because of an employee’s ethnic background or perceived national identity.
The impact of national origin discrimination on employees is profound. Victims often experience emotional distress, damage to their professional reputation, and even financial hardship when such practices lead to wrongful termination or reduced opportunities. At its core, it’s a violation of human dignity and an employee’s legal right to work in an environment free from discrimination.
If you believe you’ve been subjected to national origin discrimination in your workplace, we can help you take steps toward justice and accountability.
