Marital Status Discrimination
Marital status discrimination means treating someone
differently because of his or her marital or relationship status. In other
words, because the person is married, widowed, divorced, single, or unmarried
with a same-sex or opposite-sex partner (whether a legally recognized domestic
partner or not). Marital status discrimination can be accompanied by other
forms of discrimination, such as parental status, pregnancy, or sex
discrimination.
Examples of marital status discrimination include
offering different benefits to married employees than non-married employees and
requiring single employees to work longer hours.
