If your employer has violated this right, then you may be able to file a lawsuit against them for damages. The Kaufman Law Firm is here to represent workers who have been subjected to unlawful treatment in Thousand Oaks.
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and California Family Rights Act (CFRA) provide workers with up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for certain reasons related to family or medical issues. If your employer has violated this law, you may have a CFRA and FMLA claim against them.
In California, workplace retaliation occurs when an employer takes negative action against an employee for exercising their rights. If you have suffered because of workplace retaliation, then the Kaufman Law Firm can help you file a claim for damages.
