What Constitutes Race Discrimination in the Workplace?
Federal law can prohibits discrimination based on a person's race. Racial discrimination in the workplace occurs when a current employee, or an applicant for a job, is treated unfavorably because of their race. Employees or applicants may also experience race discrimination because of a relationship they have with a person of a different race. It is also possible for a person to racially discriminate against someone of their own race.
Racial discrimination includes unfavorable treatment due to a person's characteristics that are typically associated with a particular race.
Another related type of discrimination is color discrimination. Color discrimination occurs when an employee or applicant is treated unfavorably based on the complexion, or color, of their skin.
