In California, a discrimination claim can be filed with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) or with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). State law is often interpreted more generously toward employees than federal law, especially in claims regarding sexual harassment and disability discrimination. For example, California's antidiscrimination law covers some employers that are too small to be protected by federal law.
Also under California law, "English only" policies — prohibiting employees from using languages other than English while at work — are prohibited, except in situations where a language restriction is required for business purposes.
Representing Employers in Discrimination Claims
Shanberg Stafford LLP also represents employers in discrimination claims brought before the EEOC and the DFEH. These and other claims, including wage and hour disputes, often occur when employers are simply unaware of their responsibilities to employees.
