Was My Firing a Wrongful Termination?
California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) provides robust protections for California employees, including protection from wrongful termination due to discrimination or breach of contract. If you’ve been let go from a job position unfairly, it may be wrongful termination if your firing was due to any of the following:
- A dismissal due to taking time away from work for medical or maternity leave
- You are over age 40 and were let go in favor of a younger employee
- You were let go because of pregnancy
- You were fired due to your gender, race, sexuality, age, religion, nationality, or country of origin
- You were fired after developing a medical condition or disability
- You were terminated from your position in breach of your employment contract or in a manner not in keeping with your employer’s written policy
- You were fired in retaliation for whistleblowing or for a previous employment lawsuit
An employer may not violate federal civil rights laws or California’s workplace protection laws by wrongfully terminating your employment for any of the above reasons. You may also not be fired from your job for refusing to commit a crime or violate public policy.
