Employers cannot discriminate against employees on the basis of race. Discrimination is defined as making a decision about the terms, privileges, or conditions of employment — including compensation — based on an employee's race. Examples of racially motivated actions an employer may not take are:

• Refusing to hire a prospective employee;
• Firing an employee;
• Refusing to promote an employee;
• Paying an employee or group of employees less than employees of another race who do the same job; or
• Providing different benefits to employees of different races.
