Discrimination Against Parents in the Workplace
Can employees be fired because their children are screaming in the background of a zoom conference? Employers better think twice about taking action against those with children versus those without children. You may recall in 2020 the husband who reportedly walked through his wife’s zoom conference naked. That must be more offensive to many people than children. At any rate, children are protected class under the US Discrimination laws. Employers cannot take action against employees based on them having children. Leave a comment, and tell us of the weirdest thing you’ve seen during a Zoom meeting.
