Legal Actions for Workplace Retaliation
Facing workplace retaliation can be incredibly stressful, and you may feel like there is nothing you can do about it. This is not the case. The federal government and the state of California provide various avenues for seeking justice.
Depending on your situation, you may take one or more of the following actions:
Filing a Complaint
You can file formal complaints with the California Labor and Workplace Development Agency, Civil Rights Department (CRD), Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), or Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The appropriate agency for your complaint will vary based on the type of retaliation you experienced.
Pursuing Civil Litigation
In many circumstances, you can file a lawsuit against your employer for damages caused by their action(s). These damages can include lost wages, a negative impact on your reputation, and emotional distress.
Participating in Mediation or Negotiation
It is often possible to settle retaliation disputes in mediation or negotiation. These alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods aim to reach mutually agreeable solutions without going to court.
No matter the situation, retaining a trustworthy lawyer can be beneficial. Seeking justice for workplace retaliation is a complex process, but it is completely possible with the right information and an advocate at your side. If you are considering making a complaint, filing a lawsuit, or engaging in an ADR, consult an employment attorney like ours at Laurel Employment Law.
