Southern California Employment Attorneys
The "glass ceiling" is a term used to describe the way
certain groups are discriminated against in the workplace.
Employers, who use pay discrimination practices or do not
allow certain employees to be promoted, are encouraging
inequality in the workplace, violating the civil rights
of employees, and breaking the law. This glass ceiling
separates certain people, including minority groups, in
the workplace. If you have been the victim of glass ceiling
discrimination you should seek the legal representation
of a California glass ceiling lawyer at the Law Offices
of Terry Davis to discuss your case.
Unfortunately, illegal discriminatory practices occur
in all areas of society, including employment. Some of
the many victims of glass ceiling discrimination include:
- African Americans
- Asian Americans
- Latinos
- Women
Many victims of glass ceiling discrimination may not even
be aware that they are being discriminated against. This
form of civil rights violation is highly concealed. For
example, if a company hires capable and experienced women
and members of minority groups, but does not promote these
individual to higher positions because they are part of
a protected group (women, minorities), they have been discriminated
against. Plaintiffs in glass ceiling discrimination cases
usually use statistics to prove that discrimination is
occurring in the workplace, showing that although a company
hires minority groups, members of these groups are not
permitted to grow within the company. In many cases glass
ceiling discrimination cases are filed as class action
lawsuits, with many plaintiffs who work at the company
have similar complaints.
