BLACK EMPLOYEE HARASSED AT WORK SUES FOR THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN DAMAGES.

California and federal labor law prohibit your CA employer from discriminating against you because of your race, religion, nationality, sex or gender, sexual orientation, or age. In addition, your co-workers cannot discriminate against you for any of these reasons and once you inform your employer of this unlawful behavior, it is up to your employer to put an end to it. If you have reported adverse treatment, or discrimination, to your CA employer and you are still being victimized by such illegal behavior, call an experienced employment attorney.

When a black woman at a large appliance manufacturing company was repeatedly sexually and racially harassed by a fellow co-worker, she reported the unlawful treatment to her supervisors, four of them in fact. However, the alleged discrimination and harassment continued and the woman was ultimately physically assaulted by her co-worker. The company should have stopped the harassment and discrimination before it got to a physical point. As a result of the treatment she received at the hands of her co-worker, and her employers unwillingness to prevent the abuse, she sued her employer for hundreds of thousands and won $300,000 in damages with the help of an employment lawyer.

MORTGAGE COMPANY EMPLOYEE SUES FOR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT

California law prohibits your employee from sexually harassing you. Sexual harassment can take many forms, including sexual assault, inappropriate sexual jokes and gestures, and touching. Additionally, if you report the unlawful behavior and your employer uses this information to retaliate against you, say by firing you or threatening your job security, he is continuing to break the law. Talk to an experienced employment attorney to find out more.

When a female account executive at a local mortgage company reported the unlawful sexual harassment she was experiencing on the job, her employer retaliated against her by threatening one of her business associate’s and attempting to have her fired after she filed suit. This is against the law in CA. The woman stood up for her rights and sued her employer. She won over $9 million in damages for the gross misconduct she suffered.

WHITE WOMAN DISCRIMINATED AGAINST FOR DATING A BLACK MAN

In California, your employer cannot discriminate against you because of who you date. If you are in a relationship with a person who is a different race than you, it is no reason for your employer to treat you adversely. If your CA work environment turns hostile after your employer or another co-worker discovers that you are dating a person of a different skin color, talk to an experienced employment attorney.

When a female psychiatric worker started dating her black co-worker, things were going great until her co-workers found out. The white woman alleges that other co-workers started rumors about her sex life and placed sexually oriented posters and inappropriate computer screensavers in the work area. The woman stood up for her rights as an employee and sued her employer. She won almost $600,000 in damages.

AM I STILL ON THE CLOCK DURING MY DRIVE HOME FROM A BUSINESS TRIP?

In California, labor law protects the employee. A recent court case states that your employer might be responsible for you on your drive to and from a business trip or another ‘special errand’. Examples of special errands include:

  • You go on a business errand for your employer, leaving from your workplace and returning to your workplace
  • You are called to work to perform a special task for your employer at an irregular time
  • Your employer asks you to perform a special errand after you leave work but before going home — the entire trip ‘counts’ as a special errand

This means that your errand might be within the course and scope of your employment and if you get in a car accident while driving on a special errand for your employer, your employer might be responsible for costs. Talk to an experienced employment attorney for more information.
