Unlawful retaliation
California law makes it unlawful for an employer to retaliate against an employee for opposing or complaining of unlawful discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or unlawful wage and hour practices (e.g. failing to pay overtime or provide breaks) in the workplace.
Even if it turns out that the discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or unlawful wage and hour practices did not occur, an employer may not retaliate against an employee who opposed or complained, so long as that employee had a good faith reason to believe that the unlawful conduct had occurred.
In addition, an employer may not retaliate against an employee for reporting unlawful activity by the employer to a government entity or to the employer, or for refusing to participate in or agree to the unlawful conduct by the employer.
Unlawful retaliation at the workplace can come in many forms
Retaliation can take many forms. For instance, an employee may be unfairly disciplined (including receiving negative performance reviews), passed up for a raise or promotion, terminated or laid off, paid less than other employees, or subjected to other acts that affect the terms and conditions of his or her employment.
