How Will I Know if My California Employer is Violating the Fair Employment and Housing Act?

The Fair Employment and Housing Act, or FEHA, applies to all public and private employers, labor organizations, and employment agencies that employ five or more employees.

The Act is wide-ranging and is designed to empower workers through diversity, inclusion, and equality, so employees can flourish in the workplace under assured legal protections.

The FEHA provides protection for employees against discrimination, including applicants or current workforce members who fall under any of its covered categories, which includes:

  • Age (40 and over)
  • Ancestry and National Origin
  • Gender Identity and Gender Expression
  • Genetic Information
  • Marital Status
  • Medical Conditions
  • Mental and Physical Disability
  • Military or Veteran Status
  • Race and Color
  • Religion and Creed
  • Sex or Gender, including Pregnancy, Childbirth, Breastfeeding or Related Medical Conditions
  • Sexual Orientation

The Act also forbids retaliating against any employee because they have asserted their rights under the law. If you have suffered from discrimination in the workplace or were retaliated against for speaking up about these injustices, contact our dedicated FEHA attorneys in California today to schedule a free consultation to discuss your rights and our corresponding legal remedies.

Does the FEHA Prohibit Harassment in California Workplaces?

The FEHA prohibits harassment in all California workplaces, no matter how many employees work for the company in question.

Harassment is forbidden based on the previously listed protected categories against:

  • Applicants
  • Contractors
  • Employees
  • Unpaid Interns
  • Volunteers

If you have suffered from any type of discrimination or harassment in the workplace, contact our skilled employment dispute lawyer in Pasadena today to schedule a free consultation and learn how we will provide a customized legal approach to pursuing your unique case for success.

Pasadena Whistleblower & Retaliation Attorneys Who Focus on Complex Cases

At Romero Law, APC, our Pasadena employment law attorneys understand how listing whistleblower cases as complex may seem redundant, because it certainly is.

There is nothing easy about being a whistleblower, but as we all know, heroes do not always take the easiest path to redemption.

In fact, deciding to sound the alarm on illegal misconduct in the workplace will keep you up at night, and our skilled California whistleblower attorneys want to help you gain the confidence you need to speak up and be heard.

Whistleblowing is about more than uncovering wrongdoing. It is about courageously taking control of a difficult situation to ensure not only your safety and integrity remain intact, but that of your fellow coworkers too, so you can all hold your heads high.

Whether you are shining a light on corruption, fraud, discrimination, harassment, or an unsafe workplace, you are doing the right thing, and our Pasadena whistleblower attorneys can help guide you through the legal process that will protect your rights and your future employment from retaliatory actions by your employer.

Contact our dedicated whistleblower attorneys in Pasadena today to schedule a discreet, private, and free consultation, so you can finally rest at night.

How Can I Report My California Employer’s Wage & Hour Violations?

In the state of California, our government has specific minimum wage, overtime, and meal and rest period requirements that must be validated with accurate wage statements that are outlined with each employee’s payroll.

Unfortunately, employers have become increasingly creative in designing solutions that allow them to keep more and pay their employees less than they are entitled to for the time they have worked.

Examples of wage and hour violations in California may include, but are not limited to:

  • Paying employees below minimum wage
  • Unpaid overtime and other overtime violations
  • Inadequate rest breaks
  • Improper employee classification, which may include identifying a full-time employee as a contractor

This is illegal, and our knowledgeable wage and hour lawyers in Pasadena can help you and your coworkers, when applicable, enforce our laws to pursue the financial damages you have suffered, including interest and other statutory penalties.

You do not have to decipher our California wage and hour codes on your own. If you believe something is wrong, and that you are not receiving the pay that you deserve, contact our employment law litigators at Romero Law, APC today to learn how we can put our laws and experience to work for you.

How Will I Know if I Am Being Misclassified by My California Employer?

The California Department of Industrial Relations lists employee misclassification as “when an employer improperly classifies their employees as independent contractors so that they do not have to pay payroll taxes, minimum wage or overtime, or comply with other wage and hour law requirements such as providing meal periods and rest breaks.”

Our misclassification attorneys in Pasadena know that misclassifying employees works to the sole advantage of the employer, because the company does not have to provide basic worker protections.

It also allows employers to eschew additional protections like paid sick days, safety in the workplace, workers’ compensation coverage, unemployment insurance, the legal right to organize or join a union, the right to the family medical leave outlined in the California Family Rights Act, and no protection from employer retaliation.

In short, employer misclassification is a form of fraud, and it must be stopped in order to provide our complete California workforce with the rights, protections, and pay they deserve.

If you believe you have been or are currently being misclassified by your employer, contact our skilled employment law attorneys in Pasadena today to put a stop to this illegal activity and pursue the workplace benefits you deserve as an employee.

Workplace Safety is a Right in California, Not an Option

At Romero Law, APC, our employment law attorneys in Pasadena know that workplace safety is a right that should be afforded and protected in office buildings and restaurants, on construction sites and shipyards, and in warehouses and factories throughout California.

Some of the most common hazards in workplace environments in California may include, but are not limited to:

  • Slips, trips, and falls
  • Vehicle accidents during work-related travel
  • Getting caught in the moving parts of a machine
  • Injuries resulting from working in confined spaces
  • Fire and explosions, worsened by inadequate exits and signage
  • Violence by co-workers, permitted guests, and intruders

If you have been hurt because of unsafe conditions — or are afraid you will be injured by a consistently hazardous workplace environment — contact our experienced employment law attorneys to discuss the dangers you face each day, so we can pursue your employer to provide the protection you deserve.
