Employee Complaint Form

Here are just a few examples of unfair treatment at work: Passing up someone for a training opportunity or promotion because of someone's race, color, gender or other protected characteristic. Creating offensive comments, emails or social media posts about an employee.

The first step is to fill out a Form 1 labor board complaint. You will typically need to also fill out a Form 55 attachment that sets out each amount you are owed for each pay period you worked for the employer. If you have a retaliation claim, you will also need to fill out a Form RCI-1.

Via US mail. Send your response to: 2218 Kausen Drive, Suite 100, Elk Grove, CA 95758. Using our online California Civil Rights System (CCRS). Create an account on the Cal Civil Rights System for yourself. All you need is a valid email address and a phone number.

HR reports into the business, just the same way every other department does. That means, if your complaint is about a first level line manager, HR can probably step in, offer some coaching, and help fix the problem.

Listen fully to the complaint. Even if it seems like a frivolous issue, listen completely. Ask lots of questions. During the conversation, ask a lot of questions about the incident. Ask for something in writing. Advise the person to keep the complaint to themselves. Ensure action.

Right to a safe workplace free of dangerous conditions, toxic substances, and other potential safety hazards; Right to be free from retaliation for filing a claim or complaint against an employer (these are sometimes called "whistleblower" rights); and. Right to fair wages for work performed.

If you sue your employer, it won't be enough for you to prove that your employer made the wrong decision, or even that your employer was a no-goodnik. If you don't have a valid legal claim against your employer, then you will ultimately lose your case. One big reason to think twice before you sue.
