Any retaliation by a California employer is strictly prohibited whether the employee is opposing harassment or discrimination directed against them or against another employee. It makes no difference.
Let’s define this. This protection from retaliation is the same whether the original discrimination or harassment complaint is ultimately deemed to be valid or not valid. California employers may not take any adverse employment action against an employee that complains about or otherwise opposes discrimination or harassment as long as the employee had a reasonable belief that what he/she was complaining about was unlawful discrimination or harassment.
Furthermore, when you are an employee in the State of California, you have the right to speak to representatives of the office of the California Labor Commissioner also known as the DLSE or any other government or law enforcement agency about any issues affecting your working conditions.
