Discrimination
Employment discrimination happens in many ways, some of which may not be obvious or intentional. For example, an employer doesn’t usually decide to overlook a person for promotion because of race, gender, or other protected characteristic. However, certain acts can constitute unlawful discrimination because of their effect, regardless of the motivation for these acts.
