FAQ

The most common method of proof for discrimination cases is circumstantial evidence. Under Michigan law, the employee must not merely raise a triable issue that the employer's articulated reason was pretextual, but that it was a pretext for unlawful discrimination.

To have a boss that yells or makes employees cry is not an uncommon phenomenon in the United States, and the law does not prevent it–except when the motivation is discriminatory. A hostile work environment, in the legal sense, is a workplace made hostile because of a person's gender, race, and/or disability.

If a person's employer fails to take action to stop the harassment, a person may then want to consider a hostile work environment lawsuit. Making sure that the employer knows about the harassment or should have known is a necessary prerequisite to filing a claim.

The employee must first present evidence that he is a member of a protected class, he was qualified for the position he held, he suffered an adverse employment action such as being fired, and that he was replaced with another worker who is not a member of that protected class.

Evidence takes several forms. It includes your testimony, which is the very first evidence gathered by EEOC. It also includes written materials such as evaluations, notes by your employer, letters, memos, and the like. You will be asked to provide any documents you may have that relate to your case.

You may file a complaint of discrimination using the online complaint form or by calling 1-800-482-3604. Pursuant to section 238 of PA 166 of 2022, the Michigan Department of Civil Rights posts this notice that it has adopted a hybrid policy that includes in-person, remote, and alternative work arrangements.

Include the following in your complaint letter: Your name, address and telephone number. The name, address, and telephone number of your attorney or authorized representative, if you are represented. The basis of your complaint. The date(s) that the incident(s) you are reporting as discrimination occurred.
