Workplace Discrimination: In A Nutshell
In Massachusetts, it is against the law for your employer to treat you differently or unfairly because of:
Your race
Your national origin
Your age
Your sex
Your religion
Your disability
Your sexual orientation
And more
An employer can’t take harmful actions – such as refusing to hire you, firing you, demoting you, or passing you over for a promotion – because of your identification with any of those protected groups.
