Understanding Wrongful Termination
California is an at-will employment state, which means employers or employees can end their relationship at any time. However, there are exceptions to this rule where termination may be considered illegal. Such cases are known as wrongful termination.
Wrongful termination can occur in many ways. Here are a few common scenarios:
- Termination after requesting reasonable accommodation for a disability.
- Retaliatory termination for asking for overtime pay or unpaid wages.
- Termination following complaints about sexual harassment.
- Violation of employment contract terms.
- Termination for opposing unsafe or illegal activities.
- Discriminatory termination based on age, race, religion, nationality, disability, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
Navigating California’s complex employment laws and regulations can be overwhelming, especially while dealing with the emotional and financial stress of losing your job. At the Law Offices of Alan F. Cohen, our San Francisco wrongful termination lawyer is here to help.
