Los Angeles employment lawyer Douglas N. Silverstein, a founding partner of the esteemed labor law firm Kesluk & Silverstein, was recently asked to comment in a featured Houston Chronicle article on the effects that workplace discrimination could have on an individual’s self-esteem. The article aimed to educate readers about how federal laws may not entirely prevent instances of commonplace work and societal discrimination.
“Besides the fact that workplace discrimination is unlawful, an employee experiencing discrimination may feel anxiety-ridden, he or she may lack interest in job responsibilities or not care about career advancement or the company’s welfare,” Attorney Silverstein explained. “When employers treat employees like outsiders due to race, gender, religion, disability or national origin, the employee’s productivity and overall morale plummets. As a result, this low productivity might cost the worker a promotion or result in termination.”
Mr. Silverstein’s extensive experience made him a credible resource for information regarding the topic, because of his national recognition as a seasoned labor law attorney. He has received many accolades and awards throughout his law career and is a member of numerous professional organizations, including: the National and California Employment Lawyers Associations; the American, California and Los Angeles County Bar Labor and Employment Law Sections; the American Association for Justice as well as the Consumer Attorneys Organization of both California and Los Angeles.
The employment and labor law firm of Kesluk & Silverstein has nearly four decades of combined experience in representing victims suffering from gender, age, religious and other forms of unlawful workplace discrimination.
