Recommended: Discrimination within the workforce

I will start off going back 180 days, just before my medical leave began. However, I will go all the way back to where I believe the ongoing discrimination/harassment/hostile work environment began. On October 30, 2015 I sent Joey Bustillos (District Manager since November 2014) and John Goldyn (Regional Vice President 1 year, Divisional Vice President of Loss Prevention since April 2001) an email Subject titled “HELP”. This email is an attachment to the February 2, 2016 letter I sent to Team Relations. I needed someone to send me an assistant because my assistant Mary Obrien had rolled backwards off a mountain. I told them I could not continue to work open to close. I was getting sick. Joey replied Call Me, I called him knowing he was going

  • Overt Discrimination In The Workplace

    In today’s workplace, African Americans continue to be subjected to overt discrimination. This can take the form of ethnic jokes, racial slurs and exclusionary behaviors by Euro-American co-workers and managers. Even more disturbing is the verbal abuse, calculated mistreatment and even physical threats experienced by some African Americans while on the job. African Americans have also faced overt acts such as being reassigned to lower level projects, not receiving a promotion even though they were equally qualified and receiving less wages than other employees, even less qualified new hires. The discrimination can be so pervasive that African Americans feel uneasy and threatened, demotivated and disrespected, eventually feeling forced to leave to search for other employment.

    Sexual Harassment is unwanted sexual harassment by someone at work, be it a boss or another employee, this is what I have always thought how sexual harassment in the workplace was defined. It is so much more. Sexual harassment is now defined as telling someone they look nice, yes that is sexual harassment today. Telling someone they smell good, yes that is sexual harassment today. There are so many issues that can be considered sexual harassment that there are too many to name them all in this one research paper. You cannot pick up a newspaper or turn on the news without hearing about the latest sexual harassment case. This happens everywhere, big companies, small companies, movie stars, schools, restaurants, warehouses, bus drivers, all industries, no place is immune. .

  • Discrimination During Hiring And Employment Processes

    325 Words  | 1 Pages

    Discrimination subjects some people to being treated unfairly or differently as compared to how others are treated. Discrimination is illegal and especially during hiring and employment processes. The law categorically prohibits and heavily penalizes discrimination on the bases of certain protected categories, therefore and sadly, not all forms of discrimination are illegal and punishable. Discrimination also can be expressed via harassment, in a situation where a supervisor or a manager does something that brings in an intimidation and hostility in the working environment. It can also be illegal especially if based on the status of the victim that is protected under the laws (Anti-discrimination laws) (Freeman, 2011). For harassment to be

  • Workplace Harassment

    1011 Words  | 3 Pages

    Workplace harassment is unwelcome actions that are based on a person’s race, religion, color, and sex, and gender, country of origin, age, ethnicity or disability. The targets of the harassment are people who are usually perceived as “weaker” or “inferior” by the person who is harassing them. Companies and employers can also be guilty of workplace harassment if they utilize discriminatory practices against persons based on ethnicity, country of origin, religion, race, color, age, disability, or sex. These discriminatory practices have been illegal since the passing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Civil Rights Act of 1964), and have been amended to be more inclusive of other people who experience discrimination by the Civil Rights Act of 1991 (The Civil Rights Act of 1991), and most recently, President Obama’s signing of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009 (Stolberg, 2009).
