As soon as you become aware of discrimination or harassment in the workplace or in the hiring process, it is important for you to document everything and track what has happened. If your company has a human resources department, you should report this behavior and ask them to intervene on your behalf. If that fails, then it is in your best interest to speak with a lawyer.
Boca Raton Workplace Discrimination Attorneys
At the Law Office of William M. Julien, P.A., in Boca Raton, Florida, we can help you understand your rights regarding discrimination and harassment in the workplace.
In order to have a successful discrimination claim, you need to have enough evidence to prove to a reasonable person that discrimination occurred and that the discrimination was the cause of your being fired, not being promoted or not getting hired in the first place.
This is why it is so important to have all of the particular information documented. This includes writing down everything that happened, such as when, where and how often it happened. If there were witnesses to the discrimination, write down their names and ask them if they would be willing to testify on your behalf.
