Legal Information

Individuals and families depend on employment to pay for housing, food and other necessities of life. Sometimes an employer will unlawfully discriminate against a person at work for different reasons—including age, where a person is from, gender, or disability. When a person leaves a job under certain conditions, they may be able to receive unemployment benefits.  This section talks about the kind of discrimination a person may experience at work and some options a person has if this happens.
