Recognizing Sex and Gender Discrimination in the Workplace

Sex and gender discrimination can take many forms, and it is not always easy to recognize.  Workplace sex discrimination can occur when employment decisions such as hiring, promotions, compensation, benefits, working conditions or work assignments favor someone of a certain gender or disadvantage someone based on gender.  Sex discrimination can also involve harassment or an employer’s actions or comments related to an employee’s gender.  

Paying employees differently because of their gender is also against the law.  Because compensation is not something many employees are comfortable discussing with their co-workers, unequal pay practices may be difficult to recognize.

Depending on what type of discriminatory actions occurred, an employer might be in violation of one or several federal and state laws that prohibit discrimination against pregnant employees, unfair compensation practices or unequal treatment because of a worker’s gender.  Gender discrimination laws protect men and women, although most violations involve discrimination against women.  In isolated situations, employers with legitimate reasons for hiring someone of a specific gender may be operating within the law, but such situations are rare.
