The acts of discrimination in the organizations are illegal and it is an unspoken policy of every company to protect their employees from becoming the target of discriminatory practices in the organization. http://nillaw1955.tumblr.com/post/104434642551/discrimination-a-long-lived-tradition-of-the

I shifted to the city of California from Argentina last year and have been a victim of workplace harassment since then.
The worst thing about the attitude of people is that nobody comes forward to support the victim against the culprit and
at some point of time, the victim might himself feel like a culprit even though he/she has been completely innocent in
the entire story.
For years, acts of discrimination have been observed in various fields of business. There are several kinds of
discriminatory behavior that is often seen in the workplaces are:
Direct discrimination
This relates to unfavorable treatment towards another person. For example, mistreating a person due to his/her age
or sex in spite of his/her experience and ability.
Indirect discrimination
It occurs when there are rules and policies that are meant for everybody, but has an adverse effect only on a few
groups of the people.
Perceptive discrimination
It applies towards a misconduct against a person because of having some protected characteristic. It may be a
gender, age or disability discrimination. Harassing a woman for being physically weaker than other male employees
may lead to gender discrimination.
Harassment
It is an intentional behavior that is offensive towards a particular person. Such kind of behavior is often scary and
disturbing.
Employment discrimination is a real problem in our society that covers a huge number of cases every year. Sexual
harassment and sexual orientation discrimination ranging from religious, racial, color, mental and physical disability
discrimination are the commonly occurring practices in the organizations. According to the federal and state laws of
most of the countries these acts are illegal and are considered as criminal activities as it can demoralize the victim
and leads to a bad working environment. It may also affect the mental state of the victim adversely.
The discrimination in the organizations occurs when an individual employee acts in an offensive manner. In most of
the cases it is a known policy of every company that remains “unspoken” and every employee and employer must
adhere to the ethics of the working environment.
In fact, the government of several companies offers tax exemptions for maintaining a harmonious conduct among the
workers and employers of the companies and encourages the hiring of a particular group of people in order to ensure
that every individual within the firm is being treated properly.
Proving the acts of discrimination in the workplaces can be tough for the victim and many of the co-workers might
advise the victim to stay quiet.
Just because the thing can be tricky to prove, it does not mean that such acts of discrimination in the workplaces must
be ignored. These are the acts that are against the parameters of humanity and fighting against it is the real deal to
overcome the issue. Hiring a good employment attorney in such a situation can be helpful. It is important for the

2. victim to keep a track of the activities of the concerned employee before filing a case. The place and time of the
misdeed must be mentioned in the records.
Generally the attorneys charge fees only once after the case gets over, therefore money must not be the concern of
the victim.
