What Constitutes Retaliation?
Adverse employment actions can happen for many reasons, though they might be retaliatory if they are in response to any of the following:
- Complaining of sexual harassment
- Complaining of unlawful discrimination
- Complaining of unpaid wages or labor law violations
- Reporting unethical or unlawful behavior to the authorities or government
- Participating in an investigation of unlawful conduct
- Refusing to engage in unlawful or unethical behavior
- Requesting qualified family or medical leave
In addition, adverse employment actions can take many forms, including (but not limited to):
- Denial of a promotion
- Denial of a pay raise
- Demotion
- Reduction in hours
- Undesirable shifts, assignments, or duties
- Other disciplinary action
- Harassment
- Termination
