In simple terms yes

There is a relationship between employment and racial or religious discrimination. You can see it in news or in history.

For example less than 10 states have passed laws where it is illegal to discriminate people for how they wear their natural hair to work.

Another example would be people from lower income areas are more likely to go to jail and many people from these areas are poc. These areas are over policed for the pettiest of crimes. People in these areas cannot often afford better lawyers to represent them which leads to jail time which leads to not being able to find a decent job.

The Best example I know for racial discrimination would be the way that Muslims are treated. You could see it in France where they’re banning it jobs in public areas. Muslims often times need special accommodations for them to practice their faith and many employers do not provide that for them so it is religious discrimination.

I hope this answers are good enough I wanted to make it simple to where you could understand and add more detail if you like
