We Help Employers Avoid And Defend Discrimination Claims

Federal law protects employees from discrimination and retaliation due to specific protected categories: race, national origin, color, gender/sex, disability, age, military status and genetic information. These protections cover the terms and conditions of employment, including hiring, termination, harassing work environments, accusations of misconduct, failure to promote and demotions. Among the federal laws providing this protection are:

  • The Age Discrimination in Employment Act
  • The Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990
  • The Americans with Disabilities Act
  • Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
  • The Equal Pay Act of 1963
  • The Employee Retirement Income Security Act
  • The Family and Medical Leave Act
  • The Civil Rights Act of 1866
  • The Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990
  • The Employee Retirement Income Security Act
  • The Genetic Information Non-discrimination Act

SCHWARTZ ROLLINS assists clients by providing advice, writing policies and handling all types of claims of discrimination brought by current and former employees brought before the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission, the Department of Labor, or in federal or state court.
