What Is Workplace Discrimination?

Workplace discrimination occurs when an employee is dismissed, demoted, denied opportunities, or mistreated because of a protected attribute such as sex, race, disability, or age. It can affect employees at any level, including executives and managerial staff. 

At Wyatts, our expert workplace discrimination lawyers have successfully represented individuals who have faced discrimination based on these attributes. We protect you from any unjust treatment at the workplace and get you compensated for your physical and mental suffering.

Am I Eligible to Make a Workplace Discrimination Claim?

All employees can make a workplace discrimination claim, including full-time, part-time, casual, and probationary employees, apprentices, and trainees. You may be eligible to file a discrimination claim if you have experienced adverse action from an employer due to:

  • Race, colour, or national origin
  • Sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation
  • Age or disability (physical or mental)
  • Marital status, pregnancy, or breastfeeding
  • Family or carer’s responsibilities
  • Religion or political opinion
  • Intersex status or subjection to family/domestic violence

If you believe you’ve been discriminated against at work, consulting an employment lawyer can help you determine your eligibility and the best course of action.

Who is Not Eligible for a Workplace Discrimination Claim?

You may not be eligible to file a workplace discrimination claim if:

  • The treatment you experienced was not based on a protected attribute (e.g., sex, race, disability, age, etc.).
  • The action taken against you was reasonable management action, such as performance reviews, disciplinary measures, or workplace restructuring.
  • You are a genuine independent contractor and not considered an employee under workplace discrimination laws.
  • The incident occurred outside the workplace and is unrelated to your employment.
  • Too much time has passed since the incident, exceeding the statutory time limits for lodging a claim.

If you’re unsure about your eligibility, consulting an employment lawyer can help clarify your options.

Your Rights and Entitlements for a Workplace Discrimination Claim

Your rights depend on several factors, including the nature and cause of workplace discrimination. The Fair Work Act protects employees who make a complaint or enquiry about their employment and exercise workplace rights as a union delegate. It also allows employees to request flexible work arrangements, which employers cannot unreasonably refuse.

Navigating these claims can be challenging, but our team of experienced employment law lawyers are here to simplify the entire process. You may be able to claim the following compensation:

Entitlement Description

Compensation for Economic Loss

Payment for lost wages, missed promotions, or reduced work opportunities

Reinstatement

You may be reinstated to your previous position if you were unfairly dismissed.

Injunctions or Orders

A legal order requiring the employer to stop discriminatory practices.

Changes to Workplace Policies

Employers may be required to implement anti-discrimination policies and training

General Damages

Compensation for pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life caused by workplace discrimination

Each case is different, and the compensation you may receive depends on the severity of the discrimination, its impact on your health and career, and applicable workplace laws. Our professional discrimination claims lawyers can ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to.
