What is Transgender Discrimination in the Workplace?

Transgender discrimination is unfair or inequitable treatment based on a person’s actual or perceived gender identity. If you were subject to any form of adverse employment action because you are a transgender or gender non-conforming individual, your workplace rights may have been violated under state law, federal law, or both. Some of the most common examples of adverse employment actions include:

Refusal to consider or hire transgender job applicants;
Unequal pay or benefits for transgender workers;
Refusal to promote transgender employees;
Unjust termination of a transgender worker; or
Allowing harassment against transgender people in the workplace.

Ultimately, transgender discrimination comes in many forms. In some cases, it is open and aggressive. In other cases, it is more subtle and underhanded. Regardless, it is completely unacceptable. If you believe that you were subject to employment discrimination based on your gender identity, your case deserves an in-depth, professional investigation. Reach out to our Long Island transgender discrimination lawyers for guidance and support.
