Analysis of FCHR Case Types | By Charge

Fact #1: Discrimination on the basis of national origin appears in:

10% of eee cases;
13% of hou cases, and
13% of pub cases.

Among all bases (eg, age, col, etc.), nator is the steadiest across case types.

Fact #2: Age discrimination is almost non-existent outside of the employment setting (24%; 1%; 0%).

Takeaway #1: The types of charges that people include (in their complaints) vary according to the type of case filed.

Race Discrimination is the most common charge filed for employment discrimination complaints (by a mild margin). Yet it’s only in second place for housing discrimination complaints (by a dominant margin). This difference is even greater for charges of retaliation (29% for eee, 7% for hou, and just 1% for pub).

Takeaway #2: Disability heavily impacts housing discrimination.

57% of all housing discrimination complaints involve a charge of disability discrimination.

Note #1: By their nature, most oth discrimination cases do not indicate what the charged bases are. Therefore, that data has been omitted here.
