FEHA is enforced by the Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH).

Disability discrimination (DD) is when an individual is treated differently, unfairly, or neglected due to their disabled status. This can take many forms, such as disparaging verbal statements, failing to provide reasonable accommodations at work, or terminating employment.
Report discrimination to a local Fair Employment Practices Agency (FEPA). If the discrimination breaks both a state and federal law, the FEPA will also send your complaint to the EEOC. Use the EEOC's directory of field offices to find the FEPA near you.
Disability discrimination at work your employer not providing reasonable adjustments that would help you to do your job. an employer withdrawing a job offer when they learn of your condition. your employer firing you due to disability-related absences. workplace bullying because you are disabled.

You can use your personal devices such as your cell phone or computer to take notes or send e-mails to yourself – whatever works best for you.
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.
