California OSHA Retaliation Complaint

Employees who file complaints with Cal/OSHA are protected from discrimination.  Labor Code section 6310 provides that no person shall discriminate against any employee because the employee has filed a Cal/OSHA complaint. Some examples of discrimination are firing, demotion, layoff, and reducing pay or hours. 

Refusal to work because of an unsafe workplace condition

Labor Code section 6311 provides protection for workers who refuse to work because of an unsafe condition in their workplace. The protection exists when: 

        (1) A worker refuses to perform work because of a violation of a Labor Code section or a Title 8 safety order; and 
        (2) The violation in (1) would create a real and apparent hazard to the worker or his or her fellow workers (an imminent hazard).
