According to HR Coastal, employee lawsuits have increased by 400% over the last twenty years.

These lawsuits could range from a wide range of human resource practices, including recruiting, hiring, performance appraisal, compensation, health and safety, and labor relations issues.

Retaliation costs include lost pay and benefits, pain and suffering, punitive damages, and the employee’s legal fees as well as your own. These are the reasons why a company must give employment law and compliance attention.
