Can I sue my employer who has been steering customers to my co-workers?

Question

I'm a used car salesperson and we have a website that customer send credit applications and questions.All of our advertisement is for the 2 hispanics salespeople,and now the owner is given them all the online applications...After 10 years at this place I feel pushed out, because I see customers who I would use to be able to deal with and make money going to my co-workers.....I questioned the owner why he has directed all customers to my co-workers and he ignored me...Can I sue him , I feel ignored and without his advertisement I get nothing...This is also a way to make a person quit therefore no unemployment paid by company!!!!!

Answer 1

Try the National Labor Relations Board. You can find them online and may have a local office in your area.

Answer 2

I just read an article (I think on Yahoo) that was talking about how there is a class action lawsuit filed against Bank of America (I believe) on behalf of their African- American employees. The company would give all of the larger money accounts to white employees and give the smaller accounts to African-American employees because the company thought that poorer customers would be more comfortable with with an African-American banker and that rich people would be more comfortable with white people looking after their money. If you feel that this is happening because of ethnicity (not performance), I would speak to a lawyer. You never know- other employees may feel the same way that you do!

Answer 3

you might be able to but the thing you have to ask your self is do you ever want to work again.
the cold hard fact is no employer will want to hire someone that they think might sue them later if they dont like the way things are.
I dont agree with it but it is fact.
