Standing Up for Employees Facing Unequal Treatment Based on Race or National Origin in Missouri & Kansas

People of all different races, colors and national origins have the right to be free of discrimination or harassment in the workplace. That means that your employer may not treat you differently than your co-workers because of your race. If you and your co-workers are different races and are treated differently, for performance reviews, compensation, work assignments, or disciplinary actions including discharge, you may have a claim for racial discrimination.
