Employees in Hamilton Township are entitled to work in environments that are fair, respectful, and free of discrimination or retaliation. Whether you’re dealing with workplace harassment, wage violations, wrongful termination, or denied accommodations, employment law offers clear protections. Knowing your rights—and working with experienced attorneys—can make a significant difference when facing employment-related challenges.
Common Employment Law Issues in New Jersey
Many employees don’t realize they have legal recourse until it’s too late. Here are some common employment issues that may give rise to a legal claim:
- Workplace discrimination based on race, gender, age, disability, religion, or sexual orientation
- Sexual harassment by coworkers or supervisors
- Wrongful termination or retaliation for reporting misconduct
- Wage theft, unpaid overtime, or misclassification as an independent contractor
- Refusal to accommodate a disability or medical condition
New Jersey’s Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD), the Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA), and the New Jersey Wage and Hour Law provide broad protections for workers across the state.
Understanding Your Rights as an Employee
If you’ve experienced unlawful treatment at work, you may be entitled to remedies including reinstatement, back pay, emotional distress damages, and more. These laws not only protect your right to work free from discrimination—they also safeguard your right to report violations and assert your needs without fear of retaliation.
However, navigating these issues on your own can be difficult. That’s where legal guidance comes in.
