Employment Discrimination is Against the Law

Employment discrimination can happen to you at any stage in your career. It’s important to know your rights to ensure you don’t get pushed around by the big companies backed by aggressive litigation teams. Canadian law protects employees against discrimination firing or refusing to hire a potential candidate based on their race religion sex gender age (in some instances) skin color or genetic information.

If you feel you have been a target of discriminatory practice the first step is to hire a lawyer who is familiar with federal and provincial labour and employment law and recent cases that are similar to your own. From there we’ll explain the next steps you will need to take and your entitlements under the law.
