Unlawful Retaliation Claims on the Rise
According to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission,
2013 marked the 8th straight year of increases in unlawful retaliation
claims filed by employees. There were over 38,500 claims made last year
involving employment
issues such as demotions and firings, many of which centered on race, gender,
and other types of discrimination. The EEOC believes the increase in claims is
due to more employees being aware of their rights.
Employment law is incredibly complex and, in many cases,
laws are stacked to favor employers. Even when workers have a strong union, employers
often try to maneuver around legal issues and engage in activities that are
just plain wrong. When you are the victim of any type of mistreatment at your
job, you are entitled to seek justice through legal action.
The employment law attorneys at The Cochran Firm offer swift
and effective representation for workers who have been wronged by their
employers. We would be honored to meet with you free of charge to discuss your
case, your rights, and the most effective way to get the justice you are due.
