Retaliation
Just as the law protects your right to the timely payment of wages, and prohibits your employer from discriminating or harassing against you, it also protects your right to complain to your employer or government agency about your employer's actions. Under the law, your employer is prohibited from taking any sort of action that might have dissuaded you from bringing a complaint, which could include reducing your compensation, transferring you to undesirable projects or work locations, or terminating your employment. An experienced employment lawyer can help you assert your rights while also taking appropriate steps to protect you from retaliation. In cases where retaliation does occur, an employment lawyer can advocate for your rights in court so that you are fairly compensated for your employer's wrongdoing.
