Discrimination and Disability Accommodation Claims |
Termination of employees in certain protected classes may lead to discrimination claims. Additionally, employees who have disabilities may request reasonable accommodations. Employers who refuse or fail to accommodate those employees may be liable for damages. Employers may not retaliate against employees who make discrimination complaints or request reasonable accommodations, regardless of the merits of such claims. Moreover, qualified employees are entitled to seek leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and California Family Rights Act (CFRA). Failure to grant such leave or retaliation against employees who take such leave can result in damages and penalties.
