If you have recently lost your job, it is tempting to accuse your Sacramento area employer of unfair termination or discharge. You may believe that your boss committed an unlawful act by firing you, because he or she or other employees simply did not like you. In fact, firing an employee for that reason is not sufficient cause to bring an unlawful discrimination claim under state or federal employment laws. It is also not unlawful for an employer to lay off employees for economic reasons — because of declining business revenues or to balance the business's budget, for example.

However, you may believe that you were discharged for an unlawful reason such as the following:

• Because of your age, race, religion or national origin
• Because of a disability — although the employer could have, but failed to, provide reasonable accommodations to allow you to perform in spite of that disability
• Because the employer perceived you to be disabled, although you are not
• Because you are married or single, pregnant or a parent
• Because you are a veteran or an active member of the armed forces, or because you were called to active National Guard duty and then found your Sacramento area job was eliminated before you could return to it
• In retaliation after you refused sexual advances or after you reported sexual harassment or unlawful discrimination of any of these types
