Workers can also dual file their health and safety complaints with Federal OSHA and their retaliation complaints with the Whistleblower Protection Program.
Options to Address Retaliation
The DLSE and Federal 11(c) processes are only two remedies for addressing retaliation. There are multiple other avenues available to workers including collective action and concerted activity, worker organizing, and utilizing media pressure.
| Individual | Collective Action |
|---|---|
| DLSE Complaint | Implement Fairfax Memo |
| Union Grievance (if unionized) | Engage in Collective Action |
| Labor Code 6310 & 6311 | NLRB Complaint |
| OSHA 11(c) | Media Campaign |
| NLRB Complaint | Organizing Campaign |
