Gender Discrimination

Gender is one of the protected groups under the Civil Rights Act. Thus gender, in and of itself, may not be used in a whole range of human resource decisions regarding employees. In addition, the Equal Pay Act prohibits paying men and women differently for the same or substantially similar jobs, and Title IX prohibits discrimination by gender in educational institutions.
