California employees: "at-will" employment does not give your employer unlimited authority to fire you.

Under the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), employers cannot terminate workers based on race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex, pregnancy, gender identity, age (40+), disability, sexual orientation, medical condition, marital status, or military/veteran status.

Disability bias at work is not always obvious. Denied accommodations, exclusion, and retaliation can all be illegal under California law. Documentation and early legal guidance are essential.

A thread on what California retail workers should know about workplace harassment:

🔹 FEHA applies to ALL employers—no minimum employee count for harassment claims.
🔹 Emotional distress damages are uncapped under California law.
🔹 Harassment can be a single severe act or a pattern of conduct over time.
🔹 Retaliation for reporting is an independent violation—and strengthens your case.

California FEHA provides broad protection against workplace hostility, including subtle exclusion and single severe incidents. Employees in law firms should document everything and act early.

Pregnancy discrimination in the workplace is illegal under California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), which applies to employers with five or more employees—much lower than the federal threshold of 15. California also offers up to four months of Pregnancy Disability Leave (PDL) and an additional 12 weeks of CFRA baby-bonding leave after PDL ends.

California workers: did you know that ancestry is explicitly listed as a protected class under the state's Fair Employment and Housing Act—separate from race and national origin?

Discrimination based on your ethnic heritage, lineage, or background can take many forms: denial of promotion, ethnic slurs, pressure to change your name or accent, or being labeled a poor "cultural fit."

California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) protects workers from hostile work environments based on protected characteristics. The legal standard requires "severe or pervasive" harassment—not just difficult coworkers or demanding bosses. Employers can be strictly liable for supervisor harassment but face a negligence standard for coworker or third-party harassment. Workers must file with the California Civil Rights Department within 3 years. #FEHA #WorkplaceHarassment

CA Civil Rights Dept secured $15M from Snap Inc. for sex discrimination via administrative enforcement—no class action needed. State investigates using subpoena power, addresses systemic discrimination without class certification barriers. FEHA exceeds federal law: 5+ employee threshold, gender identity coverage, 3-year limitations. File with CRD within 3 years. Document everything: incident notes, comparative evidence, emails. #EmploymentLaw #FEHA #WorkersRights #CaliforniaLaw
