5. Racial And Color Discrimination Racial discrimination in the workplace occurs when someone is unfairly treated or employment decisions are made based on someone’s race. Color discrimination also occurs in the workplace. That is when an employee is favored or treated unfavorably based on their skin tone or complexion. In this scenario, employees may be members of the same race, but some may be treated better and some may be treated worse, depending on the color of their skin.

6. Racial and color discrimination can occur in many different ways in the employment context. Actions and decisions impacting employment such as failing to hire or promote, transfer, work assignments, recruiting, training, discipline and discharge, wages, and benefits are illegal if they are made based on race or color. It is also illegal to take actions and decisions that impact employment based on an employee being in a relationship with someone of a different race or having children of a different race.

7. Disparate Impact And The Fair Chance Act Racial discrimination is sometimes not outwardly racist. When policies and decisions result in a disparate impact on one particular race or minorities as a whole, an employer must prove that the reason behind the policy or decision was related to business and not just a pretext for racial discrimination. California’s Fair Chance Act was implemented to reduce disparities in the workforce related to criminal records and salary history. To ensure that job offers or denials are based on an applicant’s qualifications and not their criminal records, employers are prohibited from inquiring about a job candidate’s prior salary, and employers may not ask about criminal records or conduct a criminal background check until after they have extended a job offer.
