GENDER DISCRIMINATION IS AGAINST THE LAW IN THE CA WORKPLACE

If your California employer is discriminating against you because of your gender, he is breaking the law. CA and federal law clearly states that your employer is not allowed to use your gender as a reason to treat you adversely. This means that you cannot be fired, demoted, not promoted, or not receive the same benefits as your co-workers just because you are a woman, or a man. If this is happening to you, call an experienced employment attorney.

When a female pharmacist for a local Wal-Mart realized she was not receiving the same pay as her co-workers, even though their duties were the same, she asked her supervisors for a raise. The woman alleges that as a result of asking for what the law states she deserves, she was fired. Gender discrimination is illegal. The woman stood up for her rights and sued Wal mart. She won $2 million in damages.
