Standing Up Against Gender Discrimination In The Workplace

While we all would like to think that gender discrimination is not present in our jobs, it is still a very real factor for too many of us. When this kind of discrimination appears at work, taking swift legal action against it is a key measure to putting a stop to it once and for all.

At Flores Mendez Law, we want to help put an end to gender discrimination at your workplace by making it clear that any kind of discrimination is unacceptable. We will file a claim against your employer for either engaging in this discrimination or allowing it to happen, allowing us to hold the liable party accountable for their actions and provide you with the justice you deserve. We help clients facing workplace discrimination in New Mexico and West Texas.

Identifying Discrimination

The first step in putting a stop to discrimination is being able to identify all forms of it. Federal law defines gender discrimination as treating an applicant or employee unfavorably because of their sex (or sexual orientation, pregnancy or gender identity). Common forms of gender discrimination include:

• Harassing you for your gender status
• Creating a toxic work environment
• Denying you a promotion or raise because of your gender
• Misgendering someone
• Limiting access to all-gender bathrooms

If you believe you have suffered from one of these or another form of discrimination, do not let your company’s human resources department convince you to leave things to them or that you do not need to pursue legal action. Instead of letting HR sweep things under the rug, let our lawyers fight for the justice you deserve for what you experienced.
