Join us for an informative program on antisemitism and religious discrimination in the workplace, presented by Alvin Mallette, Outreach & Education Coordinator with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), New York District.

This session will focus on employees’ rights under U.S. equal employment laws, with particular attention to how antisemitism and religious discrimination can appear in workplace settings. The presentation will also cover other forms of unlawful workplace discrimination, including discrimination based on sex and other protected characteristics.

Participants will learn:

• What constitutes religious discrimination and antisemitism in the workplace

• The federal laws that protect employees from workplace discrimination

• How to recognize when conduct may cross a legal line

• How and when to file a complaint if discrimination is experienced

Any Jewish person can experience workplace discrimination, and this session is designed to help individuals better understand their rights and available protections.
