ere you illegally discriminated against in the workplace? As much as we hear in the news that employers are forced to be "politically correct", illegal discrimination still happens every day. Discrimination happens in all types of businesses and non-profit organizations, and even in government agencies that write and enforce the law.

Pennsylvania, like many states, is an "at will" state. This means that an employer can fire you for any reason, or no reason at all.

In the past, employers used the law to get rid of workers for reasons other than job performance. Some employers have even changed official company policy to exclude just those workers they want to eliminate, including those who have been loyal to the company for years. Sounds outrageous, doesn't it? It’s also illegal. Although Pennsylvania is an at will state there are both state and federal laws that protect you from being fired based on race, sex, religion, national origin, gender, pregnancy, disability and age. In addition, most state and federal employment laws prohibit employers from disciplining or discharging you if you attempt to enforce your rights under the law.
