Know Your Rights in the Workplace
In order to protect yourself, you should have knowledge of your workplace rights. Under Louisiana employment laws, you have the right to:
- Receive fair and equal pay for an equal amount of work.
- Not be harassed or discriminated against for any reason (including race, gender, religion, national origin, age, or disability).
- Report harassment or discrimination without retaliation.
- Ensure private information remains confidential.
This list is not exhaustive. If you feel that your rights have been infringed upon, speak with an attorney for further guidance.
