As an American worker, you enjoy certain rights in your vocational life — including the right to freedom from discrimination based on age, race, sex, national origin, religion, handicap, or disability. Wisconsin further articulates employees’ right to fair employment practices in the Wisconsin Fair Employment Act (WFEA).

If you suspect you have been discriminated against in a Wisconsin workplace, contact experienced Milwaukee area employment law attorneys at the law offices of Alan C. Olson & Associates, s.c.

The Wisconsin Fair Employment Act (WFEA) prohibits discrimination based on age, race, creed, religious observance or practice, color, handicap, marital status, sex. national origin, ancestry, arrest record, conviction record, membership in the National Guard, state defense force or any reserve component of the military forces of the United States or this state, unfair honesty testing, sexual orientation and sexual harassment.

The employee must file a complaint of discrimination within 300 days of the employer's discriminatory act. If the complaint is not filed by the deadline, the employee's claim may be barred and the remedies waived.
