A military discrimination lawyer can help determine if military discrimination or harassment has occurred. While workplace discrimination is not always easy to recognize, there are several red flags that may indicate military discrimination. These include:
You may also notice different treatment after you disclose your military history to a supervisor, tell HR or a supervisor about an upcoming tour of duty, or reveal that you get benefits or medical care from the VA. Military discrimination claims can be complex, especially when facing your employer’s legal team and an uninformed company.

The law defines military discrimination as any adverse action taken against an employee because of their military status or affiliation. This includes discrimination in hiring, firing, promotion, pay, and other terms and conditions of employment.
The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (“USERRA”) protects the job rights of individuals who voluntarily or involuntarily go on temporary leave to undertake military service or certain types of service in the National Disaster Medical System. USERRA also prohibits employers from discriminating against past and present members of the uniformed services, and applicants to the uniformed services. USERRA applies to all public and private employers, regardless of size. USERRA also protects those who are non-military but report discrimination against fellow employees who are in the military.
The Texas Workforce Commission Military Status Discrimination law also prohibits discrimination on the basis of state military training or duty. This law protects members of the Texas Army National Guard, Texas Air National Guard, Texas State Guard, State Militia (when on active duty), or a member of a state or federally authorized Urban Search and Rescue team, or any other active military force organized under state law.
