TRANSSEXUALS DISCRIMINATED AGAINST AT WORK CAN FIGHT BACK

A former US Army Commander recently won her case against the US Government after showing that she had been discriminated against after disclosing her intention to undergo a sex change operation. The Commander, a man at the time of his interview, was not hired after the Government became of aware of his plans to become a woman, even though they had expressed great interest in the Commander when not aware of his transsexuality. If you have been discriminated against at work because of your transsexuality, an experienced employment lawyer can help.

The court determined that the Army Commander was a victim of gender discrimination. California and federal law prohibit your employer from discriminating against you because of your gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, age, or nationality. Ways your employer might discriminate against you include not hiring, firing, or demoting you.
