Employment discrimination in Missouri against the law. Take action now!

Firing or not hiring someone because of their race, gender, religion, age, ancestry or physical abilities is against the law in Missouri. The Missouri Human Rights Act also cover more than discrimination by companies in their hiring and firing practices.  The Act makes it illegal for companies in Missouri to discriminate in other cases, including:

  • Compensation, assignment, or classification of employees
  • Transfer, promotion, layoff, or recall
  • Job advertisements
  • Recruitment
  • Testing
  • Use of company facilities
  • Training and apprenticeship programs
  • Fringe benefits
  • Pay, retirement plans, or disability leave
  • Other terms and conditions of employment

There are also many federal laws which prohibit discrimination by companies against employees or prospective workers. These laws have existed for decades. These laws are some of the reasons why people worldwide respect our country.

Some employers try to bend the rules and make up excuses for why they fired or didn’t hire or promote the most qualified person. They think they can do whatever they want because they have a lot of money and fancy lawyers who try to wiggle their way around the law. Think again.
