Pittsburgh Race Discrimination Lawyers

Under federal and state civil rights laws, employers are prohibited from discriminating against employees on the basis of their race, color, and national origin. Employees of all races and national origins are protected from discrimination in employment. 

Illegal race discrimination occurs when an employer fails to hire, fires, demotes, or denies a promotion because of an employee's race. Racial harassment, including severe or pervasive racial epithets or gestures, is also illegal in the employment context. If you believe you have been harassed because of your race, you should report it to management or Human Resources right away.​ You should also contact a race discrimination lawyer.
