The fear of losing your job often keeps people silent. But here’s the law: Retaliation is illegal.
🔥 What Is Retaliation?
Retaliation happens when your employer punishes you for:
- Reporting harassment
- Assisting in an investigation
- Filing a legal complaint
Examples: being fired, demoted, isolated, or harassed again.
