LAW
Discrimination complaint in an employment scenario is based on varied factors such as recruitment process, promotions, training, awarding and many others. These can further be influenced by differences in religion beliefs, race, variations in age, gender, color and/ country of origin. In John’s case, we assume one of these factors influenced his decision to seek legal justice against his employer. According to (EEOC) discrimination on age is forbidden for persons of age forty and over who are protected by Act on Age Discrimination in employment. Factors such as health conditions and disability which has protection under Disabilities Act 1990 can not be construed as incapacity to perform within work environment, hence the law acts upon such discrimination (EEOC, 2011). This also apply to the other factors since they do not hinder performance levels of an employee, lest discriminated upon which is unlawful. For protection, John may be seeking legal action against racial discrimination; hence he may be protected under Act of 1964, title seven, based on Civil Rights. To consider this, EEOC which acts on discrimination situations in work environment to protect the minority or the discriminated, have standard rules to enhance equal rights in employment. The commission deals with employers, unions on labour and recruitment agencies, with focus on all working situations such as payment, training and many others.
