How Employees Can Address Labor Law Violations
State and federal employment laws protect workers from several unfair practices, including age discrimination, workplace sexual harassment, unpaid overtime, and other legal matters. If you believe that your employer is in violation of California or federal employment laws, you may explore the following options:
■ Tell your employer: You could try to resolve the problem with your employer first to hopefully avoid legal disputes. Speak with a Human Resources representative or manager to make them aware of the situation.
■ File an official complaint: Some people choose to notify the appropriate labor boards of illegal workplace issues. Regulatory bodies may then conduct an investigation into the claims.
■ Consider employment litigation: Consult an employment lawyer in Orange County to see whether suing your employer is possible.
At D.Law, we understand that many people prefer not to escalate employment disputes. We can offer legal advice if your employer doesn’t adjust their practices or retaliates against you. Our goal is to uphold the rights of employees.
Our Employment Law Practice Areas
Our employment attorneys handle a wide range of cases. We may be able to assist you if you experience the following:
■ Workplace discrimination
Federal laws protect employees from discrimination on the job. Employers or colleagues may treat a worker unfairly due to their:
- Age
- Race or color
- National origin
- Religion
- Disability or genetic information
- Sex or gender identity
- Sexual orientation
■ Wrongful termination
Orange County employees may file wrongful termination lawsuits if their employer breaches their contract or fires them because they belong to a protected class.
■ Wage Theft
Bring wage and hour disputes to our experienced employment lawyers. We understand non-exempt employees’ rights to compensation for their hours worked, including overtime pay.
■ Retaliation
Reporting hour violations, employment discrimination, and other employment law issues is a protected activity. Retaliation claims involve businesses that fire, demote, or unfairly treat those who report unlawful practices
■ Leave of absence disputes
Under California law, workers have legal rights to take time off from their jobs for reasons like voting, caring for sick family members, or personal medical leave.
Do you need help navigating California labor laws and understanding your rights? Contact D.Law to have a lawyer evaluate your situation. Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to pursue a wrongful termination claim, sue an employer for violating anti-discrimination laws, or take legal action against other violations.
