Question: CAN A COWORKER MAKE DESCRININATING REMARKS,ABOUT RACES

Answer:

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission provides information about race discrimination.  In areas of harassment it states the following:

Harassment/Hostile Work Environment
Title VII prohibits offensive conduct, such as racial or ethnic slurs, racial "jokes," derogatory comments, or other verbal or physical conduct based on an individual's race/color. The conduct has to be unwelcome and offensive, and has to be severe or pervasive. Employers are required to take appropriate steps to prevent and correct unlawful harassment. Likewise, employees are responsible for reporting harassment at an early stage to prevent its escalation.
