Can an employer terminate a debtor's employment solely because the person was a debtor or failed to repay a discharged debt?
The law provides express prohibitions
against discriminatory treatment of
debtors by both governmental units and
private employers. A governmental unit
or private employer may not discriminate
against a person solely because the
person was a debtor, was insolvent
before or during the case, or has not
paid a debt that was discharged in the
case.
The law prohibits the following
forms of governmental discrimination:
terminating an employee; discriminating
with respect to hiring; or denying,
revoking, suspending, or declining to
renew a license, franchise, or similar
privilege.
A private employer may not
discriminate with respect to employment
if the discrimination is based solely
upon the bankruptcy filing.
