Case Study (discrimination)
Regina is an African American lesbian woman who comes to you for career counseling. Regina is a Registered Nurse (RN) and has been working at the same medical center for over ten years.
Regina has applied for a promotion to an administrative position multiple times and has been denied. She comes to you feeling discouraged and wonders if she should consider another career altogether.
Could Regina be the victim of discrimination in the workplace? If so, as a counselor, how could you help Regina navigate this situation and achieve her career goals?
SOLUTION
She has been seeking a promotion for several years and has been consistently passed over for opportunities. Regina believes that she is being discriminated against because of her race, sexual orientation, and gender. She would like to know what her legal options are and how she can address the issue at her workplace.
Regina is protected by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. This law also covers discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in some states.
Regina can file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), which is the federal agency responsible for enforcing the Civil Rights Act. She can also file a lawsuit in federal court.
