Assignment Help-Employment Discrimination and Safety

Employment Discrimination and Safety

A major law in the United States (U.S.) related to providing equal employment opportunity is the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The Act prohibits employers from discriminating against individuals because of their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Employers may not discriminate in any employment action, such as hiring, firing, or the terms of employment like pay, working conditions, or privileges of employment.

Protection from discrimination based on disability was not covered by the Civil Rights Act. Instead, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 protects workers and applicants with disabilities.

The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) makes sure the workplace is safe for the public and employees.
