OLDER WHITE MEN OFTEN THE FIRST TO LOSE THEIR JOBS: CONTACT A LOS ANGELES EMPLOYMENT LAWYER
In this tough economy, it seems that everyone CA employee is trying as hard as they can to keep their job. However, in a surprising study, we are seeing that this recession has greatly impacted one group in particular: older white males. While this is in part because job loss in California has been concentrated in male-dominated fields, such as construction, manufacturing and finance; and the he decline of unions, which protected employees with seniority, it doesn’t necessarily mean your termination was fair.
Employers are very weary of even appearing to be discriminating against employees on the basis of race. Sometimes, when black or Hispanic or Asian employees are let go, it is assumed to be because of race, especially if an older white male is kept on the job. In order to avoid this, and steer clear of a costly lawsuit, some employers are letting qualified white males go — setting a record 6.5% unemployment rate for white men. Don’t let your CA employer discriminate against you because of the color of your skin.
