Who Is Protected Under California Labor Law? California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) expands upon the protections detailed in 1964’s Civil Rights Act with specific protections for groups seen as particularly vulnerable to discrimination and harassment in the workplace. These groups are known as “protected classes” and include, but are not limited to: Age, those aged 40 and over are protected from age discrimination in both housing and employment.

If it can’t be proved that the termination was part of a longer history of discrimination and harassment, then it’s tough to make the case for wrongful termination. However, workers who believe they were fired under fallacious circumstances still have ways they can fight back. For example, if a supervisor fires you for a specific reason, and then that reason turns out to be false, that may be a case for wrongful termination. Likewise, even if you aren’t specifically under contract with your employer, even “at-will” employment is a kind of contract.
