Yes, there are several laws and regulations that protect employees from discrimination in the workplace. In the United States, the Equal Opportunity Act prohibits employers from discriminating against or retaliating against employees based on race, color, gender identity or expression, nationality origin, ancestry, disability status or any other protected characteristic. Additionally many states and municipalities have similar laws that prohibit discrimination and retaliation in the workplace. Employers must also comply with non-discrimination rules set by agencies such as the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) as well as executive orders issued by the President of the United States. There are also federal regulations regarding equal opportunity in housing which impact apartment hunters' experiences with realtors and landlords.
