Harassment based on sex is prohibited in the workplace. Sexual harassment creates a hostile, offensive, oppressive, or intimidating work environment and deprives its victim of his or her statutory right to work in a place free of discrimination, when the sexually harassing conduct sufficiently offends, humiliates, distresses or intrudes upon its victim, so as to disrupt the victim’s emotional tranquility in the workplace, affect the victim’s ability to perform his or her job as usual, or otherwise interferes with and undermines his or her personal sense of well-being.

Everyone deserves to work in a supportive, safe and fair environment. Harassment and discrimination have no place in the modern workplace. When employers fail to provide it, both California and federal law provide protections for employees.

Nearly one in every four Californian adults live with a disability. Yet at the time of the last census report, a mere 35% of people with disabilities between the ages of 21 and 64 were employed. Although physical or mental disabilities in no way diminish a person’s right to fully participate in all aspects of society, these numbers reflect the harsh reality that people with disabilities, as a group, occupy an inferior status in our society, and are severely disadvantaged economically.

A whistleblower is an employee that disclose information that he or she reasonably believes violates state or federal law; or local, state or federal rule or regulation; or involves employee safety or health. An employer may not retaliate against an employee who is a whistleblower, or against an employee that refuses to participate in an activity that he or she believes would result in violation of state or federal laws.

The California Equal Pay Act, enacted in 1949, was intended to correct the centuries-old problem of gender-based wage discrimination and redress the segregation of women into historically undervalued occupations. Yet over half a century later, in 2022, the problem persists as women earn 82 cents for every $1 men earn when comparing all women to all men. In part, this is caused by women being more likely to leave the workforce as a result of social expectations placed on them as mothers and caretakers, heightened by the pandemic. Unemployed women also face a disproportionate wage penalty compared to men when they re-enter the workforce.

It is not uncommon to need time away from work to address and care for health-related issues. If you or a member of your family is experiencing a serious health condition, Federal and State laws give you the right to take job-protected leave. The Federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the California Family Rights Act (CFRA) both may provide you the right to take a leave and to return to your job after the leave.

A significant number of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender employees continue to experience discrimination and harassment in the workplace. Employees have a right to go to work without fear of being bullied or losing their jobs because of who they are or who they love. In California, under the Fair Employment and Housing Act (“FEHA”), it is unlawful for employers to discriminate against workers or treat them unequally because of their sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression or sex.

Federal Law and State laws make it unlawful for employers to discriminate against older persons on the basis of age. Your employer may not discriminate against older persons in any aspect of their employment, including but not limited to hiring, pay, benefits, workplace opportunities, performance reviews, physical or verbal treatment, assignments, and firing.
Unfortunately, despite age discrimination laws making discriminatory practices illegal, it is not uncommon in the workplace. According to recent studies, approximately 1 in 5 workers over the age of 40 report having personally experienced age-related discrimination. If you believe you are experiencing age discrimination, you are not alone.

Work plays a crucial role in most of our lives. We spend significant amounts of time in the workplace and rely upon employment to provide for ourselves and our families. As such, it is important and empowering to understand the legal rights and protections that employees have at work.
In the complex and ever-changing landscape of federal laws and state laws, an employment attorney can help you understand the civil rights that you have as an employee, and help you fight for your rights at work. If you are going through an employment dispute, it is important to have an employment lawyer advocate for you as you navigate an employment dispute.
