CA EMPLOYEES OF ALL COLOR DESERVE EQUAL PAY FOR DOING THE SAME WORK

In California, and throughout the country, it is against the law for your employer to discriminate against you because of your skin color, or race. This means you cannot be fired, demoted, not promoted, or not receive less pay for doing the same job as your co-workers. In this tough economy, it is especially important for you to protect your rights and make sure that your employer is paying you what you deserve. Talk to an experienced employment lawyer if you believe you are being discriminated against at your CA job.

When local contractors hired workers of all races and colors, the workers were happy. However, the employees claim they started to notice a trend of unequal place based on race. The construction workers allege that their employers instated a three-tiered wage rate in which Irish workers were paid $25 an hour, African-Americans about $18 and Latino employees $15. The employees are seeking $4 million in damages for the discrimination they suffered.
