Litigation, Advice And Training

Attorney Gitt provides training services and general advice. As an employer, it is important to have clear and concise contracts, postings, policies and handbooks. It is critical for managers and supervisors to be well-informed about federal and state laws that prohibit harassment and discrimination.

In some interactions with employees, simple goodwill and basic consideration will sometimes (more often in the past) suffice to resolve problems. However, there are many complexities in employment law that require the constant, informed attention of employers and supervisors.

Many state and federal laws provide for the provision of double or treble damages or duplicate, high penalties even for accidental violations, and/or attorneys’ fees for prevailing plaintiffs in employment litigation, or injunctive relief that requires employers to change their policies. So one wrong step can be very costly, especially when it is not promptly addressed.

Sexual Harassment

One area of employment law that remains the source of significant lawsuits (and plaintiffs’ awards) is sexual harassment claims under Title VII and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (“FEHA”). The “Me Too” movement has given this claim even a bigger boost than it had previously, and the changing times have expanded this claim to cover far more than the original male-on-female harassment. Time is of the essence in addressing these claims; the California FEHA requires that they be immediately investigated.

California also has significant training and policy requirements separate from the existence of actual claims. It is important for employers to have a carefully planned and executed policy for handling sexual harassment complaints. Attorney Gitt assists employers in the drafting of company sexual harassment policies, workplace investigations, and assistance in providing training.
