Employment and Labor

Employers in Pennsylvania must consider a myriad of state and federal statutes in making even routine hiring and employment termination decisions. These laws prohibit discrimination based on race, gender, religion, national origin, or age. More importantly, civil rights and discrimination claims can arise from several aspects of the employment relationship, including hiring, promotion, job assignment, and compensation. The attorneys at The Perry Law Firm, L.L.C. have litigated such claims and can assist an employer in both avoiding claims for wrongful termination, and using the Pennsylvania “at-will” employee doctrine to their advantage.
