Exclusively Employment Law, Exclusively for Employees
What Is Employment Law?
Employment law is a broad legal area of the law that covers all aspects of the employer-employee relationship, from hiring, firing, labor laws, and everything in between. It includes state and federal laws, as well as court decisions that have interpreted those laws. Employment law covers a lot, including harassment, wages, prevailing wages, working hours, any form of discrimination, and more.
Discrimination
Under federal and state law, employers cannot discriminate against employees based on certain protected characteristics. This means that employers cannot make decisions related to hiring, firing, promoting, or demoting employees based on their race, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, or pregnancy.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment is a type of discrimination that is prohibited by law. It refers to any requests for sexual favors, unwelcome sexual advances, or other physical or verbal behavior of a sexual nature. It is important to note that sexual harassment is not limited to situations in which an employee is harassed by a supervisor or someone with authority over them. It can also occur between co-workers.
Wrongful Termination
Wrongful termination is the unjust act of when an employee is fired for an illegal reason. There are many different situations that could give rise to a wrongful termination claim, such as being fired in violation of an employment contract or being fired in retaliation for reporting discrimination or harassment. If you have been wrongfully terminated from your position, you could be entitled to monetary support, such as lost wages and benefits.
Minimum Wage and Overtime
Employees in California are entitled to be paid at least the minimum wage for all hours worked, as well as additional hourly wages for any time worked over eight hours in a day or over forty hours in a week. If you have not been paid the wages you are owed, you may be able to file a claim against your employer.
These are a few of many topics that fall under the umbrella of employment law. If you have been treated unlawfully by your employer, it is important to speak with an experienced Long Beach employment lawyer. They can assess your case and help you determine your best course of action.
What Evidence Is Needed to Prove an Employment Law Claim?
The evidence needed to prove an employment law claim will vary depending on the specific type of claim being made. In general, however, employees will need to show that they were treated differently than other employees who are not in the protected class, that they suffered some type of adverse employment action (such as being fired or demoted), and that the employer’s actions were motivated by discrimination.
Forms of evidence that may be used to prove an employment law claim include:
- Witness testimony: Witnesses can provide testimony about what they saw or heard. This may include co-workers, friends, or family members. Because a place of employment is often filled with many people who may have seen or heard something, it could offer a wealth of information to help prove your claim.
- Documents or emails from the employer: Emails or other documents from the employer may contain evidence of their violation. For example, an email may contain a discriminatory remark made by the employer. These are often powerful pieces of evidence in an employment law case, as the employer cannot claim that the remark was taken out of context when it is in writing.
- Performance reviews: If an employer has given an employee a positive performance review in the past but then suddenly starts giving negative reviews after the employee complains of discrimination, this could be used as evidence to show that the employer’s actions were motivated by discrimination. Lawyers will look at these reviews closely to see if there is a pattern of discrimination and compare it to the way other employees are being treated.
- Pay stubs or other records of hours worked: These records can help show whether an employer has violated the law by not paying employees the minimum wage or overtime pay. The numbers on a paystub cannot be disputed, so these records can be very helpful in proving an employment law claim.
These are just a few examples of the types of evidence that may be used to prove an employment law claim. Any combination of evidence may be used, and an experienced employment lawyer will know how to assess the evidence and build a strong case.
