Strong retaliation cases also generally include evidence that the employer did not discharge employees who did not engage in protected activity under substantially similar circumstances, failed to observe its company policies, and/or made derogatory comments directed at the employee's protected activity.
Your employer cannot punish you, treat you differently or harass you if you report job discrimination or help someone else report job discrimination, even if it turns out the conduct was not illegal. We call this your right to be protected from retaliation.
