Discrimination in the Workplace

State and national laws protect employees from being subjected to discriminatory treatment (which includes the employee's gender, race, age, national origin, religion, pregnancy, or disability) and wrongful termination in the workplace. These laws also protect employees from sexual harassment in the workplace by supervisors, coworkers, or even customers. Employees have a right to stop discriminatory conduct in the workplace. If an employee tries to stop such conduct or notifies a supervisor that discriminatory conduct has occurred, that employee also has protection, under state and national laws, from retaliation by the supervisor or employer. If you feel you might be a victim of employment discrimination, contact us.

Whistleblowing and Protection from Retaliation in the Workplace

See the detailed description in our toolbar.

In cases where someone uncovers fraud against the federal government, there are national laws that protect the individual and provide very large rewards for the whistle blower. In any case, whether it involves federal fraud or not, whistleblowers, or people who expose such misconduct, are protected by the law against retaliation by their employers and coworkers. If you feel that you have uncovered illegal or unethical conduct in the workplace, contact our attorneys in Stamford, Connecticut.
