Racial Discrimination Overview

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Chapter 21 of the Texas Labor Code forbid employers and potential employers from discriminating against employees and job applicants on the basis of their race. Employers are prohibited from racially discriminating in:

hiring, training, benefits awards and restrictions, compensation, promotions, firing, layoffs, harassment, and other terms and privileges of employment

In practice, racial discrimination often looks like:

  • Promoting racial-based stereotypes within the office – such as how persons of a certain race are expected to act, dress, speak, and behave
  • Use of racial slurs
  • Pranks or jokes that involve racially insensitive material, such as nooses
  • Workplace dress codes that have racially-charged rules, such as prohibiting an African-American individual from wearing their hair in dreadlocks or braids

Submitting a Texas Workforce Commission Complaint

The Texas Workforce Commission has a special division devoted exclusively to racial discrimination – the Civil Rights Division. This Division enforces the Texas Commission on Human Rights Act. These commissions have a sharing agreement with the EEOC wherein a complaint filed with one entity can also be filed with the other.
