TOOL: Retaliation Not Allowed

  

Feature Contents

1. Supreme Court Parses Protections for Internal Company Probes
Employees participating in a company probe of discrimination may receive the same protections against retaliation as the person who filed the charge, if the Supreme Court rules in favor of a Tennessee woman.

2. Wider Bases for Retaliation Claims, but Not Better Chances for Plaintiffs to Win
The Supreme Court’s decisions in two cases are not entirely bad for employers. While they endorse an additional means to sue an employer, they do not change the burden of proof needed for an employee to prevail on a retaliation claim.

he U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s Web site page on "Retaliation" details what by law is considered retaliation against an employee who files a charge of discrimination, participates in a proceeding investigating a claim of discrimination or otherwise opposes discrimination. "Retaliation occurs when an employer, employment agency or labor organization takes an adverse action against a covered individual because he or she engaged in a protected activity," the EEOC says. For HR managers and others in positions of responsibility, the site offers useful information as well as links to more, including "Information for Small Employers" and "Title VII of the Civil Rights Act."
