Wrongful Termination
Employees can be fired for countless reasons, however, you have legal rights to protect you from unfair situations where you are being taken advantage of. Employees have legal safeguards in situations where they have been fired because of their race, gender, gender expression, pregnancy, medical condition, disability, sexual orientation, religion, or because of false accusations. Employers are also not allowed to fire an employee as retaliation for whistleblowing unsafe or unethical work conditions.
Workplace Harassment
Sexual harassment is only one of many ways in which employees can be harassed at work. Whether it’s a boss or a coworker that is bullying you doesn’t matter, it is still wrong. Everyone deserves to work in a safe environment. Recent social movements have allowed many disenfranchised employees from speaking out against criminal behavior from people in positions of power. You are not alone.
Wage/Hour Disputes
There are laws designed to protect workers from being forced to: work off the clock for free, not get paid for overtime work, work through rest and meal breaks. There are also laws that prevent employees from being misclassified as an independent contractor in order to bypass having to offer full-time benefits or pay for overtime work. These are just some of the ways employers try to cheat their employees while exploiting their labor.
