As an employee, you should be aware of all the various ways that you can be targeted by your employer. It is not uncommon at all to face repercussions if you acted in a way that the employer does not agree with, especially if it is outside of the specific scope of employment. For example, some workers may speak out about immoral business practices while others may file complaints concerning sexual harassment at the job. There is the possibility that these occurrences, if brought to light, will greatly impact the company, which the owners do not want. As a result, you may be targeted and retaliated against at work.
It is illegal for your employer to retaliate against you for whistle blowing, reporting harassment, reporting an unsavory practice, taking leave, filing a complaint regarding wages, and more. Essentially, if your employer exacts revenge on you because you wanted to change something at the workplace or because you felt unfairly treated, he is likely in violation of unfair retaliation.
Many employers feature at-will employment, which means that they can terminate you for any reason provided that reason is lawful. By the same token, you can leave the job for any reason. If there are contracts in place that prevent you from being fired, you may have extra protection if there is evidence of retaliation.
