You are entitled to be free from workplace harassment and workplace retaliation discrimination. 

That includes your coworkers. 

Therefore, there are certain activities you can participate in that are protected. You can carry out those activities without fear of retaliation. Federal law protects your right to carry out certain activities.

These activities were created to allow you to protect, not only yourself, but your coworkers.  If you see workplace harassment or discrimination, or other wrongful employment actions, the law allows you to bring those issues to the forefront in order to put a stop to such harmful conduct and hopefully prevent it from happening again. 

You cannot be discriminated against because you reported workplace harm. As a result, the following are certain activities that courts have determined to be be protected.

What activities are protected from retaliation discrimination? To name a few:

• Being a witness in a workplace harassment/discrimination investigation
• Filing a harassment/discrimination complaint
• Raising workplace harassment/discrimination concerns to your employer
• Refusing to participate in harassing/discriminatory behavior
• Intervening to protect others

These are just to name a few examples.  Therefore, if you believe you have acted in good faith at work to protect yourself or others, and now you face adverse employment decisions being made against by your employer, we invite you to reach out to Thomson Dunkel and let us see if we can help you.
