Walk It Through: The Demotion

Age among the grounds, six months to file with the commission, and a civil action for actual damages.

An older warehouse lead is moved to a lower paid job, and the manager says the company wants younger faces.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

One demotion and one complaint. Retaliation, the commission's process, and the bona fide occupational qualification in detail are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
