Fair and equitable treatment is something all employees deserve but don’t receive. Employee mistreatment can often lead to financial and emotional impacts that decrease a worker’s quality of life.

His experience spans state and federal laws that protect against workplace violations, including unfair treatment from an employer who wrongfully occupies power over you in your place of employment—a workplace where every employee should be treated fairly!

You are protected from retaliation if you file a lawsuit against your employer for a breach of employment law, complain about an illegal employment practice, or expose company wrongdoing to a regulatory agency.

As with discrimination, sexual harassment can take many different forms, including inappropriate touching or language and suggestive behavior.
