California laws protect you when you have a medical condition that impacts your ability to work. The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibits employer discrimination based on actual or perceived medical conditions, including firing and other adverse employment actions.

Report workplace discrimination Report discrimination to the EEOC. Use the EEOC's public portal to follow the complaint process. Submit an online inquiry. Schedule an interview with someone from the EEOC.
