Hypothetical question

Honestly, i'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

supervisor making racist comments. I've been dealing with this for about 16 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 1 years. My position is non-exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Illustrative response

NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. But don't just take my word for it, get real legal advice.

Illustrative response

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's labor board? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
