Statute of limitations california workplace harassment

If you have experienced a violation of the FEHA, you have a limited amount of time to seek relief. Therefore it is advisable for employees to pursue relief under the FEHA instead of the ADA. More employers in California are subject to California anti-discrimination law than are subject to federal law. Comparatively, the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) applies only to employers with a minimum of 15 employees. The FEHA anti-discrimination provisions are applicable to any employer with five or more full- or part-time employees.

If you have experienced any of these issues while employed in California, you may be eligible for relief. The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) is the primary law that protects California employees from discrimination, retaliation, and harassment in the workplace.
