An employer may not fire, demote, harass or otherwise retaliate against an
individual for filing a charge of discrimination, participating in an investigation, or
opposing discriminatory practices. Retaliation occurs when an employer takes an
adverse action against a covered individual because he or she engaged in a protected
activity. An adverse action is is an action taken to try and keep someone from
opposing a discriminatory practice, or from participating in an employment
discrimination proceeding. Employees can sue their employers for retaliating against
them for protected activities such as filing a charge of discrimination or a worker's
compensation claim.
