Hawai‘i Employment Law: Protecting Your Workplace Rights
Hawai‘i’s employment laws are designed to protect the rights of both employees and employers, promoting fair treatment and a safe, respectful workplace. We are available to assist clients with a range of employment-related issues, including wage disputes, wrongful termination, and workplace discrimination.
Common Employment Law Issues in Hawai‘i
- Wrongful Termination: Employees who are terminated in violation of state or federal laws—whether due to discrimination, retaliation, or breach of contract—may have grounds for legal action.
- Wage and Hour Disputes: Hawai‘i enforces strict standards regarding minimum wage, overtime, and employee classification. If you believe you’ve been denied proper compensation, you may be entitled to recover unpaid wages and damages.
- Workplace Discrimination and Harassment: Discrimination based on race, gender, age, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics is prohibited. Harassment of any kind is unlawful. Victims have the right to seek remedies to restore a safe and respectful work environment.
- Retaliation: Employers are legally barred from retaliating against employees who report unsafe conditions, discrimination, or other illegal practices. If you experience adverse actions after asserting your rights, you may have a viable claim for retaliation.
- Family and Medical Leave: State and federal laws entitle qualified employees to leave for medical and family reasons. We can help clarify your rights under the law and guide you through any disputes that arise.
- Employment Contracts and Severance Agreements: Disputes may arise over non-compete clauses, severance terms, or breaches of contract, particularly when roles change or employment ends.
