Wrongful Termination
A wrongful termination is when an employer decides to terminate the employment of an employee and that decision was based on discrimination or retaliation. To be actionable, the decision must have been motivated by discrimination of race, gender, age (including sexual harassment), pregnancy, national origin, disability, or religion. It is also wrongful termination if the termination was motivated by retaliation for participating in a protected activity such as collecting workers’ compensation, whistleblowing, filing a complaint of discrimination, or exercising your rights under the Family Medical Leave Act.
