In both the state of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, it is illegal for employers to treat their workers unfavorably because of their gender or due to a disability. Furthermore, it is an employer's duty to provide their disabled workers with reasonable accommodations should they ask. The Law Firm of Jacobson & Rooks, LLC encourages individuals who feel that they have been mistreated in the workplace, due to their gender or a disability, to contact them immediately for a free and confidential consultation today.
Not every person with a medical condition is considered to have a disability. In order for an individual to be protected by law for a physical or mental disability, he or she must meet one of the three following requirements: the impairment substantially limits a significant life activity (walking, talking, hearing), the person has a history of a disability (cancer in remission), or the disability or impairment is not transitory (lasting six months or less). Those who believe they fall into one of the above categories and have been either denied a position, treated differently than their counterparts, or refused a reasonable accommodation should seek legal help as soon as possible.
In addition to handling disability discrimination cases, The Law Firm of Jacobson & Rooks, LLC is equally knowledgeable on the laws surrounding gender discrimination in the workplace as well.
