California Employment Law
The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) provides sweeping protections for employees against discrimination, including instances of sexual discrimination. When most people think of these claims, they often think of women employees lacking the same opportunity as men. While this is common, FEHA covers an array of other types of discrimination, as well.
FEHA covers instances of workplace discrimination against an employee's:
- Sex
- Sexual orientation
- Gender
- Gender expression
- Gender identity
- Marital status
Matters of pregnancy are also covered under FEHA. If you or a loved one has been adversely affected at work due to their gender or sexual orientation, our firm is ready to assess your claim. Even when confronting large corporate entities, our firm is ready to bring aggressive advocacy to your claim and ensure that it is given the scrutiny it deserves.
