retaliation law

Retaliation law protects employees from being punished or unfairly treated because they exercise their legal rights, such as reporting discrimination, harassment, or safety violations. Employers cannot retaliate by firing, demoting, or penalizing employees for filing complaints, participating in investigations, or asserting their rights under workplace laws. These laws aim to ensure employees can speak up without fear of negative consequences, fostering a fair and safe work environment. If retaliation occurs, the affected employee may have the right to file a complaint or seek legal remedies.
