how would you feel and do that you work in a company that pays you less than someone who is a different race and religion than you. I cant really quit because of bills and loans to pay .they get bonus and holiday with pay and i get none of those.

In the US? If I could prove they were discriminating based on race, I'd demand fair compensation and then sue them if I didn't get it.

On the surface it sounds wrong, but more info is needed for anyone to answer you properly. Do you have to be there a certain amount of time per company policy before you get the benefits? Is the other person full-time and you are part-time? Many companies only have benefits for full-timers. Also, are you talking about a person who does the EXACT same job as you, or do they have a different position? All of these things factor in, it may not be what you think it is.

Technically, you shouldn't be informed of the rate of pay of others in your position, for this very reason. It's an unfortunate and unfair thing; and it happens to many (race and religion aren't the only discriminating factors).
Since you do know this, your best course of action is to continue to be a model employee and start shopping your resume for another position. Try to avoid being disgruntled as it may affect your ability to secure a good reference, which you may need in the future.

If this is in the United States, file a title seven lawsuit under the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
It has to do with work force equality in reference to age, race, religion, gender, disability etc.

How did you find out how much they make?
I used to work in Human Relations and unfortunately, salaries and bonuses for a job are like buying a new car. You have to negotiate when you start working and you have to push for raises and bonuses.
You and your coworker could be working side by side and doing the exact same job, but if they started with a better deal than you did than you, unfortunately, are out of luck.
Maybe you just took the first offer and they negotiated for something better. And, maybe they got better performance reviews than you did.
Perhaps you should speak to your HR representative.

i recognize a few people who worship the two the Greek and the Norse Gods, yet they do no longer integrate the two. they save their worship of the pantheons separate. yet what you're conversing approximately...yeah, that's merely...wow. i do no longer recognize too plenty approximately Hellenismos yet from what I understand the religion is amazingly distinctive from Heathenry and a protracted procedures from being everywhere close to similiar to Wicca. i'm no longer able to truly see Odin and Zeus getting alongside the two....merely can no longer.

That has to be unconstitutional. It's definitely discrimination. I'd see a lawyer.

How can you be so certain that it isn't based on superior skills, performance or work ethic?
