After filing a discrimination complaint internally or with the EEOC, your employer is legally prohibited from punishing you for it. Retaliation can look like:
- Sudden negative performance reviews
- Demotion, schedule changes, or pay cuts
- Being excluded from meetings or opportunities
- Termination
Both Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and Michigan's Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act protect employees from retaliation. Importantly, retaliation claims can be filed even if the original discrimination claim doesn't succeed.
