Common Employment Law Questions

Q: What qualifies as workplace discrimination?
A: Workplace discrimination occurs when an employee is treated unfairly based on protected characteristics such as race, gender, age, religion, disability, or sexual orientation. This can include hiring, firing, promotions, pay, or job assignments.

Q: What should I do if I’ve been wrongfully terminated?
A: If you believe you were fired for an illegal reason, such as discrimination, retaliation, or a breach of contract, you may have a case for wrongful termination. Keep records of any relevant communications and consult with an employment attorney to explore your options.

Q: How do I know if I’m entitled to unpaid wages or overtime?
A: Federal and state laws require employers to pay at least minimum wage and provide overtime pay for eligible employees. If your employer has failed to pay you fairly, you may be able to file a claim to recover what you’re owed.

Q: What are my rights if I’ve experienced workplace harassment?
A: Workplace harassment, including sexual harassment, is illegal when it creates a hostile work environment or results in adverse employment decisions. You have the right to report harassment and take legal action if your employer fails to address the issue.
