Gender discrimination in the workplace is essentially being treated less well because of your gender, as it's stated in the New York City Human Rights Law. Some examples of gender discrimination can be treated less well for being a woman, for being a man, being subjected to stereotypes regarding the genders – for example, discriminating against a woman for having a familial responsibility and assuming that, because she's a woman, she will be taken by that responsibility, or discriminating against a man and assuming that he will not have certain responsibilities because he is not the primary caretaker or caregiver.
