Definition
An associational discrimination claim is a legal action brought by an individual who alleges they have been subjected to unfair treatment or adverse actions by an employer or organization based on their association or relationship with a person who has a protected characteristic, such as race, disability, religion, or age. Under anti-discrimination laws like the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it is unlawful for employers to discriminate against employees due to their association with someone who has a protected status, even if the employee themselves does not possess that status.
