Workplace Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation

Workplace discrimination in Pasadena can take many forms, and it often shows up through unfair discipline, denied promotions, pay disparities, hostile comments, or termination. Common protected categories involved in discrimination claims include:

• Gender

• Race / ethnicity

• Disability

• Age

California law prohibits employers from making job decisions such as hiring, firing, promotions, scheduling, pay, or discipline based on protected characteristics. If you believe you’ve been targeted, pushed out, or punished for reporting unfair treatment, legal guidance can help you understand whether your rights were violated and what remedies may be available.

Unpaid Wages and Labor Code Violations

Wage theft is not always obvious. It can show up as missed meal and rest breaks, unpaid overtime, off-the-clock work, minimum wage violations, or refusing to reimburse reasonable business expenses. California law provides strong protections for employees, and employers may be held accountable when they fail to pay what workers are owed.

If your paycheck doesn’t reflect the hours you worked, or your employer is cutting corners on breaks, overtime, or reimbursements, then Tapanian Law can review your situation, identify potential violations, and help you pursue the compensation you earned.
