Avoid employee retaliation claims with these tips and tricks. Employees are protected from retaliatory actions by their employer as a result of or connected with engaging in protected activities recognized by various labor and employment laws. While the total number of traditional disparate treatment and impact claims against employers continue to be rampant, retaliation lawsuits and related administrative charges are actually outpacing traditional claims. As one prominent EEOC investigator recently explained, 'It is not the initial discrimination charge that employers should be concerned with as much or more than ensuring that the employee is not retaliated against for having filed it.' Management, at all levels, must recognize retaliation protections and avoid any perception of retaliation when continuing to control the employee relationship. |
