What evidence is needed for retaliation cases?

What evidence do I need to prove a retaliation case?

To prove a retaliation case, you typically need evidence showing that you engaged in a protected activity, that your employer took adverse action against you, and that there is a causal link between the two.

Can you give examples of protected activities?

Sure! Protected activities include filing a complaint about discrimination, participating in an investigation, or requesting accommodations for a disability.

What kind of adverse actions should I look for?

Adverse actions can include termination, demotion, harassment, or any negative change in your employment conditions.

How can I establish a causal link?

You can establish a causal link by showing that the adverse action occurred shortly after the protected activity, or by providing evidence of retaliatory intent from your employer.
