How Do I Know If I Have Been Sexually Discriminated Against?

Sexual discrimination is not always easy to determine and even more challenging to verify. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) defines sex-based discrimination as treating someone unfairly as a result of their sex identification or sexual orientation. There are a number of methods by which a person can be discriminated against:

  • Terms of work
  • Benefits
  • Training
  • Discharges
  • Promotions
  • Job assignment
  • Settlement
  • Hiring and firing

Sexual discrimination also includes harassment, which includes any kind of unwanted sexual contact, verbal harassment, or requests for sex-related favors. Unfortunately, a lot of men and women do not report sex-related discrimination when it occurs. Nevertheless, those that commit this type of discrimination or harassment need to be held accountable for their actions.

Hiring and Firing

An employer may work with or fire you just because of your sex. Even if you show that you can perform a job, you may be overlooked since you're not the 'ideal' sex. If so, you can examine your case to identify how you were discriminated against. You can not be denied employment opportunities on the basis of sex.

Compensation and Benefits

You may have the same job summary, qualifications, and experience as another person. However, they earn higher pay or better benefits because they are of different sex. We might be able to determine that your pay is decreased because of your sex.Professional DefamationDiscrimination can lead to long-lasting damage and can also prevent you from advancing in your profession. You could get a negative recommendation or be the target of a false rumor. When you are treated unfairly it could be you-- not the at-fault party-- who suffers the consequences.
