In San Diego, discrimination, workplace injury, and hostile work environment claims are some of the most common types of employment claims filed. The experienced Lawyers for Justice, P.C. workplace lawyers handle all employment law violations, including:
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment is defined as unwanted sexual advances from a coworker or employer. This can come in a variety of forms, from unwanted touching and lewd behavior to vulgar jokes and suggestive comments. It can happen to anybody regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, or professional status.
A victim of sexual harassment in the workplace should document all instances, gather any evidence (such as witness statements and emails), and report the issue internally. If the harassment continues, the victim should consult with an experienced employment attorney to explore their legal options.
Wage Theft
Wage theft occurs when an employer steals income from their employees through deceptive practices such as underpaying, withholding overtime pay, failing to reimburse employees for job-related costs, and paying less than the mandated minimum wage. Employees who suspect wage theft should gather a detailed record of their income, pay stubs, and related documents to strengthen a San Diego employment attorney’s case against their employer.
Wrongful Termination
California’s status as an “at-will” employment state means employers can terminate employment for no reason. However, they cannot fire an employee for an illegal reason. Wrongful termination occurs when a worker is terminated for unlawful and/or unethical reasons, such as discrimination or retaliation for exercising their legal rights, such as reporting unsafe conditions or taking medical leave. A worker who has been wrongfully terminated may be able to recover compensation with the service of a dedicated employment attorney.
Due to filing deadlines and statutes of limitations, a worker who has suffered employment law violations should take prompt action to secure the advice of a qualified labor law attorney.
