Overland Park Gender Discrimination Lawyers 

Advocating for Fair Treatment and Equal Opportunity in Missouri & Kansas Workplaces

Your employer may not treat you differently than your co-workers because of your gender. If you are treated differently because of your gender, for performance reviews, compensation, work assignments, or disciplinary actions including discharge, you may have a claim for gender discrimination. Any kind of workplace discrimination should never be tolerated. You have a right to be treated with equal respect no matter your gender.

Examples of Gender Discrimination

Gender discrimination can mean the following:

• A woman is fired for doing (or not doing) something, when men have done (or not done) the same thing, but have not been fired;
• Your employer allows men to violate certain rules or standards (like allowing men to arrive late or take longer lunches) but disciplines a woman for the same actions;
• One gender is favored with more lucrative clients or sales territories;
• Performance standards are different for men and women in the same job;
• One gender is expected to handle a more significant workload than the other gender, but the parties are in the same job; or
• the woman is expected to handle more administrative tasks than the men but they are in the same position.
