Employment Rights in Light of 9/11We don’t have a big Middle Eastern population in New Hampshire, nevertheless, rights should be guarded.As an employer you might want to look at the EEOC web site below. Since the attacks of September 11, 2001, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and state and local fair employment practices agencies have documented a significant increase in the number of charges alleging workplace discrimination based on religion and/or national origin. Many of the charges have been filed by individuals who are or perceived to be Muslim, Arab, South Asian, or Sikh. These charges most commonly allege harassment and discharge. In order to help people better understand their rights, EEOC has posted detailed information on its website about national origin and religious discrimination, as well as information on how to file a charge. www.eeoc.gov/facts/backlash-employee.html Want More Information?
