Protecting Your Workplace Rights
It is illegal for a company or business to discriminate based on race, gender, orientation, nationality, age, disability or family status. Workers also have a right to minimum wage and overtime. All U.S. workers are protected by state and federal laws that shield them from any retaliation by an employer should they file a complaint.
At Bronnberg & Henriquez PC, our skilled employment law attorneys are tireless advocates for the working men and women and the teachers of this country. We can help you.
