With its May 27, 2008 decisions in CBOCS West, Inc. v. Humphries and Gomez-Perez v. Potter, the Supreme Court has again expanded the scope of employee protection from retaliation for opposing or complaining about workplace discrimination. Retaliation claims now account for 30 percent of all EEOC charges. Employers face liability for employee retaliation claims not only under Title VII, but also under many other federal and state statutes and common law theories. Join two experienced employment lawyers as they identify your company’s or client’s legal risks for retaliation claims, some of which you may not even be aware, and offer practical action steps to control those risks when dealing with current and former employees who may use retaliation as a shield to protect them from well-deserved adverse action.
