Understanding Gender Discrimination
Gender discrimination is defined as an employer treating an employee differently or less favorably based on the individual’s gender, gender identity, gender expression, or sexual orientation. It can refer to various types of harassment or adverse employment actions, including:
- Failing to hire the individual
- Making rude or inappropriate comments
- Discriminatory jokes or remarks
- A work environment that feels hostile
- Denying job opportunities or promotions
- Demoting or firing the worker, which may amount to wrongful termination
- Discriminatory workplace policies
- Unequal pay because of gender
- Retaliation for reporting gender discrimination
Gender is defined by California Penal Code § 11410 (the law against hate crimes) as “sex, and includes a person’s gender identity and gender expression, or a person’s gender-related appearance and behavior whether or not stereotypically associated with the person’s assigned sex at birth.”
