This Week's Question

Retaliation For the past several years, retaliation has been the number one discrimination charge filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).

Which of the following is not likely to constitute protected activity?
A) Complaining to a supervisor about a coworker’s harassment
B) Complaining to a supervisor about staff cutbacks
C) Filing a charge with the EEOC
D) Threatening to file a discrimination lawsuit
E) Refusing to obey an employer’s order based on a reasonable belief that the order was discriminatory
