In California, there are laws that protect employees aged 40 and older from age discrimination, or being treated adversely because of your age. This means that your employer cannot discriminate against you (fire you, demote you, not hire you, etc…) just because you are older than 40. It is especially important in this economy to make sure that you are not being let go or fired for an unlawful reason. An experienced employment attorney can help make sure your rights are protected.

You’re a California employee. You’ve been working for your company for a while. And recently, due to the bad economy, or maybe just bad luck, you were fired. Should your CA employer give you a severance package? Maybe. Maybe not. An experienced employment lawyer can help you answer that question.

With all this talk we’ve been hearing about severance packages — usually for executives and workers at big companies — many CA workers assume that severance pay is a given. However, usually without a labor contract that specifies a severance deal, you have no such rights. No federal or CA state law requires severance pay. But the good news for you, a CA employee, is that providing severance pay has morphed into common practice. Your contract might require that your employer give you severance pay upon your termination.

California farmers and others employed in the agriculture industry should be very pleased: recent changes by the US Labor Secretary will help their earning potential. In an attempt to protect the American worker, the Labor Secretary suspended regulations adopted by the Bush administration that governed wages and recruitment of immigrant guest workers for agriculture. The regulations will be suspended for nine months while the Labor Department figures out new regulations for the guest worker program.

Supposedly the old regulations lowered wages for immigrant guest workers and the changes are seen as a move to improve conditions for workers. If you are a farm hand, legally in the US or not, you have rights as an employee that need to be protected. Make sure you are receiving proper pay, such as overtime and benefits. An experienced employment attorney can help you.

In California, you cannot be discriminated because of your race or nationality. This also means that your CA employer cannot discriminate, or take any adverse action, against you because you speak another language, in addition to English (if that is what is required of your job). While if your job demands that you communicate with others in English and you were told this when you were hired, you might need to speak English, your employer cannot discriminate against you because you speak another language.

While a CA employer is, in simple terms, free to discipline, fail to promote, or fire an employee whose performance suffers due to personal obligations or interests, including childcare, without necessarily incurring liability under Title VII, your employer is NOT free to assume that a woman – simply because she is a woman – will necessarily be a less productive worker simply because of family responsibilities. Such stereotypes are still very common in the California workplace, however this does not make them right or legal.

When a mother of four (including three triplets) who was enrolled in a class in a local college, came up for a promotion at her job, her employers allegedly denied her the raise and promotion because of her family responsibilities and all that she had ‘on her plate’ as a mother. Her supervisors allegedly brought up her parental status in her promotion interview and she was reportedly told that the reason she did not receive the promotion was because of her family, not her job performance.

Good news! According to a recent survey, fewer companies in the U.S. and CA plan to begin cutting jobs, which means that you might be able to relax for the time being.

This is down substantially from February, where 13% of companies thought they would begin laying off workers in the next year.

Gender discrimination, or discrimination based on your sex, is against the law in California. Unfortunately, gender bias is a very common problem in many workplaces, especially those that have traditionally been male-dominated industries, such as the automobile industry. However, times are continuing to change and as a result there is certainly no reason for your employer to use old stereotypes to discriminate against you, a female employee.

CA and federal laws prohibit your employer from discriminating against you because you are a woman or a man. While often woman tend to be the more common recipients of gender bias, this does not mean men cannot also be victims. When two female high-level employees at a luxury car-maker noticed that they were being treated differently than their male counterparts, receiving less pay, getting passed over for promotions, and watching male executives putting down women, they took legal action and stood up for their rights.
