Understanding Retaliation
Workplace retaliation occurs when an employer disciplines or fires an employee for asserting their rights or reporting activities that they believed were unlawful against themselves or other colleagues, such as reporting workplace discrimination or harassment to the company or to a federal, state, or local agency. Retaliatory behavior may come in the form of changing your job duties, denying a promotion, giving you a negative performance review, or decreasing your salary after you engaged in protected activity.
