HAIR DRESSER FIRED BECAUSE OF HER SEX: NOT ALLOWED IN CALIFORNIA.

As a California employee, your rights are protected by federal and state labor law. Whether you are a man or a woman, you deserve equal treatment. If your CA employer is treating you differently or adversely because of your gender, you should talk to an experienced employment lawyer. Adverse treatment based on your sex is against the law in California.

When a female hairdresser was fired by her supervisor at the beauty salon, she filed a sex discrimination complaint within the appropriate time period. As a result of her action, she was able to file a lawsuit against her employer and eventually win almost $200,000 in damages for the discrimination the court determined that she suffered at the hands of the salon owners. Don’t let your CA employer discriminate against you because of your gender.

AUTISTIC EMPLOYEE DISCRIMINATED AGAINST BY HIS EMPLOYER.

California law clearly states that your employer cannot discriminate against you because you suffer from a recognized medical disability. Discrimination occurs when your employer fires you, demotes you, does not promote you, or does not promote you with the same benefits given to your co-workers, all because of your medical disability. If you have a medical disability and your employer is treating you adversely, call an experienced employment lawyer.

When an autistic employee at a local clothing store was discriminated against by his supervisors, he took legal action. If you suffer from a medical disability, it is up to your employer to provide you with reasonable accommodations that do not place an undue burden on your employer. The clothing store did not provide the employee with such accommodations and as a result he won over $100,000 in damages.

If you are a CA employee who believes that because of your recognized medical disability that you have been discriminated against at your job, call the hard working legal team of Law Offices of David H. Greenberg at 1-888-204-1014. Our skilled employment attorneys will provide you with a free consultation regarding your legal rights.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CONSTRUCTION WORKERS WIN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN UNPAID WAGES

In California, it is against the law for your employer to not pay you for the hours that you work. This means that if you work 8 hours each day, 5 days a week, you should get paid for the 40 hours of work you perform each year. California and federal law protect your rights as an employee in CA and both state that you must be paid for hours worked, provided overtime or breaks and be compensated for the time you travel between job sites and wait for materials to arrive.

When a group of construction workers for a Southern California builder stood up for their rights, they were pleasantly surprised. They alleged that they were not paid for the hours that they worked and that wage fraud is pervasive in the home-building industry, which relies heavily on immigrant labor. They sued the builder and will receive over $240,000 in damages.

REASONABLE ACCOMODATIONS FOR YOUR MEDICAL DISABILITY REQUIRED IN CALIFORNIA

Are you suffering from a medical disability? The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires a CA employer with 15 or more employees to provide reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities, unless it would cause undue hardship. A reasonable accommodation can be a change in the work environment or in the way a job is performed that enables a disabled employee to enjoy equal employment opportunities.

When an Orange County, CA man with cerebral palsy began working at Target, he was excited. However, he soon realized his special needs were not being met and he claims that as a result of the miscommunication, his hours were reduced. He took legal action and is suing Target for damages resulting from medical disability discrimination.

DEFAMATION AND THE CA WORKPLACE

In CA, defamation is against the law. What exactly is defamation? Defamation is injury to your reputation or character resulting from the false statements or actions of another.

IS YOUR CO-WORKER SPREADING LIES ABOUT YOU AT WORK?

Defamation is a serious problem in the California workplace. Defamation occurs when one person makes a false statement about another you, which causes you to suffer physical or emotional harm. The statement must be published, or spoken to someone other than you. Defamation can be written — libel — or spoken — slander. Each is equally as against the law.

Defamation in the CA workplace often occurs when you, the employee, are subjected to the publication of false criticism; perhaps alleging poor performance, dishonesty, etc… and is often used as a means to justify your termination. If you believe your employer or another co-worker is spreading lies about you, you might be able to bring a defamation claim.

MEN AND WOMEN CAN BE VICTIMS OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT IN THE CA WORKPLACE

While we tend to think of sexual harassment in terms of women, men can also be victims of the illegal behavior. In California, your employer is breaking the law if he is harassing you, whether you are a man or a woman. Sexual harassment can take many forms, including inappropriate jokes, gestures, sexual innuendos, and requests for sexual activity. As an employee in California, you are protected against sexual harassment in your place of work.

When three employees at a local Lowe’s, 2 women and one man, were subjected to widespread and repeated sexual harassment by male and female managers and coworkers at a Lowe’s store, they took legal action. They alleged that the sexually hostile workplace, which endured for more than six months, included physical and verbal abuse which culminated in one instance of sexual assault. The three employees received over $1.7 million in damages for the harassment they suffered.

If you are a male or female employee in CA and you believe you have been sexually harassed at work, call the law offices of Law Offices of David H. Greenberg TODAY.

GOVERNMENT LAY OFFS ON THE RISE IN CALIFORNIA

In past economic downtimes, CA state and government employees have been pretty safe from layoffs. However, times are changing — and not necessarily for the better. The Labor Department’s recent report on jobs in September showed that 53,000 fewer government workers were at their desks compared with August. This means that many state and government employees are being let go. If you have recently been laid off, make sure it is for legal reasons.

It is against the law in CA for your employer, even if it is the state or county, to fire you because of your race, gender, age, nationality, or religion. If you believe that your termination was a result of discrimination, you need to stand up for your rights. You could win thousands of dollars in court with the help of an experienced employment lawyer.

If you are a CA government employee who believes that your termination was a result of discrimination, call the hard working legal team of Law Offices of David H. Greenberg at 1-888-204-1014.

GENDER DISCRIMINATION IS AGAINST THE LAW IN THE CA WORKPLACE

If your California employer is discriminating against you because of your gender, he is breaking the law. CA and federal law clearly states that your employer is not allowed to use your gender as a reason to treat you adversely. This means that you cannot be fired, demoted, not promoted, or not receive the same benefits as your co-workers just because you are a woman, or a man. If this is happening to you, call an experienced employment attorney.

When a female pharmacist for a local Wal-Mart realized she was not receiving the same pay as her co-workers, even though their duties were the same, she asked her supervisors for a raise. The woman alleges that as a result of asking for what the law states she deserves, she was fired. Gender discrimination is illegal. The woman stood up for her rights and sued Wal mart. She won $2 million in damages.
