You know our New Jersey Law Against Discrimination is so far reaching it protects not only employees in the work place it protects members of the public when they go into places of public accommodation like stores or schools.
It protects students when they are in school and it even protects people who aren’t employees like independent contractors. If you for example are a sales person and you are not an employee, you are just an outside sales person or you are a worker who has come to the site to do a temporary job and you are considered to be an independent contractor you still have rights under our CEPA law, the whistle blower law, and also under the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination.
The Law Against Discrimination has a specific provision that prevents discrimination in the conduct or creation of a contract. So an employer can’t refuse to contract with you and hire you as a contractor just because you are Black or gay or straight, a woman or a man. Just because you are old or young or any of the other protected categories that we talked about.
