In a cause of action for employment discrimination under the Florida Civil Rights Act (FCRA), a plaintiff may file an action for the unlawful employment practices of any employer, labor organization, or joint labor-management committee controlling an apprenticeship or other training or retraining programs that discriminate against an individual based on race, color religion, sex national origin, age, handicap, or marital status. Additionally, if in the course of employment an employee is required to receive a license, certification, become a member of a club, association, or other organization, it is an unlawful employment practice to discriminate against an individual seeking such an association or status based on the person's race, color religion, sex national origin, age, handicap, or marital status. Moreover, an employer organization, or joint labor-management committee may not use unlawful employment practices in publishing or printing any notice or advertisement relating to employment, membership, classification, referral for employment, or apprenticeship or other training, which indicates any preference, limitation, specification, or discrimination based on race, color religion, sex national origin, age, handicap, or marital status. For example, a home improvement retail store employee failed to establish a prima facie case for employment discrimination based on disability under the Florida Civil Rights Act (FCRA) where a position for Team Leader was twice advertised and for which he applied both times, but the position was ultimately never created or filled.
