Video Transcript: What if I report harassment and get fired
If you’ve reported harassment or discrimination in the workplace, and your employer has responded by firing you, we will advocate for you aggressively and through every step of the process. What our clients need to understand is every statute that protects an employee based on rights to be free from discrimination has a corresponding section that says if you complain about it, and then get terminated, that’s illegal in the same way it is to be discriminated against in the first instance.
If as a result of making a protected report of either harassment or discrimination you get fired, that’s a claim that we will take through every step of the litigation process if we have to, because that’s illegal, and that’s something that we’ll prove on your behalf.
