If your rights have been violated, it’s important to act quickly and assertively. Our attorneys have years of experience helping Salem County workers navigate legal challenges and secure the outcomes they deserve.
Examples of Discrimination in the Workplace
Not all workplace discrimination is obvious. It can show up in policies, behaviors, or decisions that may seem neutral on the surface but disproportionately impact certain groups. Common forms of discrimination include:
- Unfair discipline: Receiving harsher treatment than coworkers for similar conduct
- Unequal pay: Being paid less than others for performing the same job
- Promotion denials: Being overlooked repeatedly despite strong performance
- Hostile environment: Facing slurs, inappropriate jokes, or exclusion from teams or meetings
- Termination: Being fired after disclosing a disability, filing a complaint, or taking protected leave
New Jersey’s Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD) covers all of these situations and more. If any of these sound familiar, legal support may be the next step.
Legal Protections for Salem County Employees
New Jersey law protects workers in all industries, including agriculture, healthcare, education, manufacturing, and public service. No matter your position or employer size, you are legally entitled to:
- Equal treatment in hiring, firing, compensation, and promotion
- A workplace free of harassment and hostility
- Reasonable accommodations for disabilities and religious practices
- Protection from retaliation after reporting illegal activity

Employers who fail to uphold these protections can be held accountable through legal action—and NJ Employment Lawyers, LLC is here to guide you through that process.
