Discrimination in the workplace refers to the unlawful treatment of employees
or job applicants based on certain protected characteristics, including but not
limited to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or
genetic information. It encompasses various forms of adverse actions, such as hiring,
firing, promotion, pay disparities, and harassment, which result in disparate treatment
or a hostile work environment. Federal and state anti-discrimination laws prohibit such
conduct and provide remedies for victims, including the right to file complaints with
relevant administrative agencies or pursue legal action against the offending employer.
