Workplace Discrimination Claims

Law Tram’s Discrimination at Work Consultation simplifies the process by connecting you with licensed Australian lawyers who can offer tailored legal advice specific to your situation. This free, fully online, and obligation-free service ensures you receive expert guidance every step of the way.

Treated Unfairly Because of Who You Are?

It is unlawful in Australia to treat someone unfairly at work because of personal characteristics such as race, sex, disability, age, pregnancy, religion, sexual orientation, or other protected attributes. This includes being denied a job, demoted, harassed or dismissed based on who you are and not how you do your job.

Workplace discrimination claims can be lodged under federal or state laws, depending on your situation. There are strict timeframes and procedural steps, so it’s important to act promptly.

Law Tram connects you with lawyers who can explain your rights, help you assess whether you’ve experienced unlawful discrimination, and support you in taking the next step.
