Additional description

What are employment rights disputes?

Employment rights disputes arise when an employer violates state or federal labor laws. Common violations include wrongful termination, unpaid wages, workplace discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation, and denial of legally required benefits.

Common employment disputes in the US

Wrongful termination

fired for illegal reasons (discrimination, retaliation, whistleblowing)

Wage and hour violations

unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, tip theft

Workplace discrimination

based on race, gender, age, disability, religion, or national origin

Sexual harassment

unwanted conduct of a sexual nature

Retaliation

punishment for reporting violations or exercising legal rights

FMLA violations

denial of legally required family and medical leave

Where to file an employment complaint

Depending on the violation, you may file with the EEOC (discrimination/harassment), the US Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division (wage theft), the NLRB (union rights), or your state’s labor commissioner or department of labor.

Time limits for employment claims

EEOC discrimination charges must be filed within 180–300 days of the discriminatory act. Wage claims under the FLSA have a 2–3 year statute of limitations. State deadlines vary — always act promptly.
