Workplace Retaliation Overview

Workplace Retaliation in Arizona

Risking job security and livelihood to stand up for yourself or a coworker displays principled bravery and integrity. For those who do stand up, the risk of workplace retaliation is a very valid fear. Retaliation is defined as any adverse action taken against an employee for, among other things, reporting or filing a claim involving a violation of federal or state employment laws in their workplace. The attorneys at Robaina & Kresin PLLC, are invested in protecting Arizona residents who have suffered negative consequences at work for asserting a claim or participating in an investigation involving their employer.

In the employer-employee relationship, the employer often occupies a position of power that can be easily abused. We represent clients who have been fired, demoted or experienced a pay decrease as a result of:

• filing a discrimination or sexual harassment claim,
• testifying on behalf of co-workers who have filed their own claims,
• participating in government or criminal investigations into their employer and workplace,
• complaining internally to the employer/management about the employer or an employee of the employer violating an Arizona statute, or
• refusing to engage in conduct that would violate an Arizona statute.
