Hold Your Employer Accountable for Illegal Practices

If your employer has taken advantage of the confusion and novelty of how society is dealing with the novel coronavirus to take advantage of you at work, you don’t have to tolerate it. Whether there’s a worldwide pandemic or not, you have employment rights that always apply, even when there’s public health crisis.

In fact, it’s times like these when your rights as a worker may matter most. Your employer may not engage in discrimination, retaliation, or skirt wage and overtime compensation laws at this time or any other. If you believe your company has made layoff decisions or taken other adverse employment actions based on your association with a protected class (age, race, disability, gender, etc.) or because you spoke up about safety concerns or violations, your employer may be held accountable to paying you fair and just compensation.

If you think you need to talk to an employment law attorney about your situation, contact the attorneys of Feldman Browne, APC online or call (310) 984-1415 for legal assistance.
