The law also protects those workers who are victims of retaliation by their employers, due to supporting or standing up for employees who were harassed or discriminated against. If you have been fired, demoted or disciplined because you reported illegal activity occurring at the workplace, you have legal rights under state and federal "whistleblower" laws. Whistleblower is a term used to describe employees who report the illegal conduct of their employer or supervisor.

For more than 35 years, our attorneys have sought to protect the rights of employees who have suffered discrimination at the workplace as well as those who have suffered whistleblower retaliation.

Protecting Whistleblower Employees
As an employee, you should be able to report illegal activity without suffering any retaliatory consequences such as wrongful termination. If you have not yet been terminated or faced disciplinary actions, threats of retaliation and harassment are still illegal. However, a causal link must be shown between the reporting activity of the employee and the retaliatory actions of the employer. Even if the employer did not engage in the underlying illegal activity, such as discrimination or harassment, they can still face legal action for retaliation.
