How Can I Determine If I Have Experienced Sexual Discrimination?

Identifying and proving sexual discrimination can be challenging. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) defines sexual discrimination as unfair treatment based on an individual's gender identity or sexual orientation. Various aspects of employment can be affected, including terms of employment, benefits, training, dismissals, promotions, job assignments, compensation, and hiring and firing decisions. Sexual discrimination also encompasses harassment, which includes unwelcome sexual advances, verbal harassment, or requests for sexual favors. Unfortunately, many individuals do not report incidents of sexual discrimination as they occur. However, it is important to hold those who commit such acts accountable for their actions.

Types of Sexual Discrimination Cases We Handle

Sexual discrimination cases are complex and sensitive. At Marko Law, we approach these cases with the utmost sensitivity and discretion. Our highly skilled legal team is experienced in handling a range of employment law cases, including:

  1. Sexual Harassment: Any unwelcome physical or verbal conduct of a sexual nature directed at a colleague or employee, including explicit or implied requests for sexual favors.
  2. Hiring and Firing: Discrimination based on gender during the hiring or termination process, where an individual may be overlooked solely because they do not fit the employer's preferred gender.
  3. Compensation and Benefits: Unequal pay or inferior benefits based on gender, despite having similar qualifications and experience as counterparts of a different gender.
  4. Professional Defamation: Unfair damage to one's professional reputation, such as receiving a negative reference or being targeted by false rumors, hindering career advancement due to gender discrimination.
  5. Hostile Work Environment: Persistent harassment, such as offensive jokes, slurs, or comments, that creates an uncomfortable and hostile workplace environment, impacting job performance and well-being.

Damages in a Sexual Discrimination Case

Sexual discrimination can have profound financial, professional, and emotional consequences that affect various areas of your life. When evaluating damages, our legal team considers factors such as:

  1. Lost wages, benefits, or other compensation: Seeking rightful compensation for income and benefits lost due to discrimination.
  2. Cost of finding a new job: Considering the expenses incurred during the search for alternative employment.
  3. Damages related to breach of employment: Addressing losses resulting from violations of employment contracts or agreements.
  4. Counseling or therapy for emotional distress: Recognizing the importance of addressing the emotional toll of discrimination and seeking reimbursement for therapy or counseling expenses.
  5. Damage to your professional reputation: Striving to rectify any harm caused to your professional standing and reputation due to discrimination.

In cases where the defendant's actions were intentional or malicious, punitive damages may also be pursued. Our goal is to secure maximum compensation based on both economic and non-economic losses.
