How to Handle Workplace Retaliation

Today, we're talking about your rights and legal protections if you face retaliation from your employer after filing a workers' compensation claim.

Please understand that the law protects you. Employers can’t penalize you— by dismissing you, reducing your hours, or giving you a negative performance review—just because you filed a workers' compensation claim. If this happens, it's key to act swiftly and protect your rights.

Document every detail. Take note of any changes in your employment conditions after your claim and keep records of communications with your employer.
If you’re facing retaliation, remember, that documentation is your best defense. And don’t hesitate to seek legal advice.

We’re here every Tuesday sharing common sense legal sense tips. If you have a question you’d like us to answer just put it in the comments.
