Arizona law makes it an unlawful employment
practice to discriminate because of race, color,
religion, sex, age (40 years old or older), national
origin or disability.
Examples of discrimination may include, but are not
limited to:
• Failing or refusing to hire or discharging individuals
for discriminatory reasons
• Providing different pay, benefits or other terms and
conditions of employment
• Segregating jobs or work sites
• Sexual harassment
• Engaging in or tolerating harassment because of
race, color, national origin, religion, age or disability
• Pregnancy discrimination
• Failing to provide reasonable accommodation for
disabled persons
• Treating people differently because they have
complained about discrimination
• Treating people less favorably because of the results
of genetic testing
*Charges alleging discrimination because of race,
color, religion, sex, age, national origin or disability
may be filed against any employer that has 15 or more
employees.
*Charges alleging sexual harassment may be filed
against any employer, regardless of size.
*Generally, charges must be filed within 180 days of
the most recent act of discrimination (300 days under
federal law), although time limits may be extended
under some circumstances.
[You may also file a charge directly with the United
States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
(EEOC). The EEOC’
