Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
Employer defined
“Employer” means a person who has one or more employees.
Unlawful employment practices
The unlawful employment practices and exemptions are similar to those under the federal Guidelines on Discrimination Because of Sex. For example, the state law includes an exemption for a bona fide occupational qualification.
“Sex” includes, but is not limited to, pregnancy, childbirth, and disabilities related to pregnancy or childbirth.
Charges must be filed within one year of the alleged unlawful act.
An agency of a city, county, or group of counties may be created as a local commission for the purpose of dealing with discrimination on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status, status with regard to public assistance, sexual orientation, or familial status. If a county or group of counties creates a local commission, the commission does not have jurisdiction over any part of the county that is within the jurisdiction of a local commission created by city charter or municipal ordinance.
