Warren County, NJ is a hub for agriculture, manufacturing, healthcare, and education—sectors that rely on the dedication and integrity of their workforce. Unfortunately, even in close-knit and industrious communities like Phillipsburg, Hackettstown, and Washington, workplace discrimination continues to impact employees across various industries.

NJ Employment Lawyers, LLC proudly represents workers in Warren County who have experienced discrimination, harassment, or retaliation at work. If your employer has violated your rights, we are ready to help you pursue justice and protect your livelihood.

Common Forms of Workplace Discrimination

Workplace discrimination can be subtle or overt—but either way, it’s harmful and illegal. You may have a claim if you’ve experienced:

• Termination or demotion after disclosing a pregnancy or disability


• Offensive or hostile comments based on religion, gender, or race


• Pay inequality or denial of promotions for unjustifiable reasons


• Exclusion from key projects or professional development opportunities


• Retaliation for filing a complaint or standing up for a coworker

New Jersey law prohibits this kind of mistreatment and provides victims with avenues for relief.

Your Rights Under NJLAD

The New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD) applies to all employers in Warren County and across the state. This law makes it unlawful to discriminate based on:

• Race, ethnicity, or national origin


• Sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation


• Pregnancy, disability, or perceived disability


• Religion, age, or marital status









• Veteran or military status

If your employer violates NJLAD, you may be entitled to back pay, damages for emotional distress, attorney’s fees, and—in some cases—punitive damages. The law also protects employees from retaliation when they report wrongdoing or assist with a coworker’s claim.

Steps You Should Take

Facing workplace discrimination can be daunting, but taking the right steps early on will protect your rights:

• Document Everything: Keep a detailed journal of each discriminatory act, including dates, names, and descriptions.


• Save Evidence: Retain any relevant emails, text messages, HR complaints, or evaluations.


• Use Internal Channels: Report the behavior through your company’s HR process, if it is safe to do so.


• Speak to a Lawyer: Contact an employment attorney to review your situation and discuss your legal options.
