RETALIATION
Most employment discrimination laws not only make it illegal to discriminate against
protected groups, but also prohibit retaliation against an employee who asserted
his/her rights under the law.
Retaliation is any adverse employment action taken against an employee who complained
of discrimination, harassment, or a violation of workplace law. It is also
retaliation to take adverse action against an employee who participates in an investigation
of one of these problems. Adverse action can be taken by the employer, managers,
or fellow employees.
Many things can qualify as adverse employment action. Some of the more common
examples include: (a) Firing; (b) Demotion; (c) Discipline; (d) Negative evaluations;
or (e) Change in job or shift assignment
