Recently, the EEOC warned employers to avoid swine flu discrimination. The EEOC suggested that your employer refrain from nationality discrimination against Mexicans or Hispanic Americans. What does this mean exactly? And how are you, a California employee, protected by this? An experienced employment lawyer can answer your questions in more detail.

Put simply, your CA employer should refrain from making employment decisions based merely on the fact that you, a CA employee, are from Mexico. For example, refusing to hire you, or firing you because you are of Mexican origin, because of a belief that Mexicans may be ill with swine flu could run violate anti-discrimination laws. Various Federal and CA state laws protect California employees from race and nationality discrimination.

If you are a CA employee who believes that because of swine flu fear and your nationality that you have been the victim of discrimination at your job, call the legal team of Law Offices of David H.
