Retaliation

What is Workplace Retaliation?

Workplace retaliation happens when an employer takes adverse action against an employee for engaging in legally protected activities. This includes filing discrimination complaints, reporting safety violations, or participating in investigations. California law provides strong protections against retaliation, and Mohseni Law Group helps employees who face punishment for standing up for their rights.

Types of Retaliatory Actions:

• Employment Actions: Termination, demotion, salary reduction, or denial of promotions.

• Workplace Hostility: Harassment, isolation, excessive scrutiny, or unreasonable work assignments.

• Constructive Changes: Altering work conditions to make employment untenable or undesirable.

Protected Activities Under California Law:

• Filing Complaints: Reporting discrimination, harassment, or safety violations to employers or government agencies.

• Participating in Investigations: Cooperating with internal investigations or government enforcement actions.

• Opposing Unlawful Practices: Refusing to participate in illegal activities or discriminatory practices.

• Taking Protected Leave: Taking leave due to a disability, pregnancy, or to care for a loved one.
