Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Get quick answers to the most common employment law questions from Nevada workers and employers.

Can I be fired for any reason in Nevada?

Nevada is an at-will employment state, but employers cannot fire you for discriminatory reasons (race, age, gender, disability, etc.), in retaliation for protected activity (filing workers' comp, reporting harassment), or in violation of public policy. Many "at-will" terminations are actually illegal — consult an employment attorney immediately if you believe your termination was unlawful.

Read more about Wrongful Termination Lawyers for Nevada Employees

How long do I have to file an employment claim in Nevada?

Deadlines vary by claim type. EEOC discrimination charges: 300 days. NERC complaints: 300 days. NRS 613.400 whistleblower claims: 2 years. Breach of contract: 4 years (written) or 2 years (oral). These deadlines are strict — consult an employment attorney immediately to preserve your rights.

What is Nevada's minimum wage and overtime law?

Nevada minimum wage is $12.00/hour (2024). Overtime is 1.5x your regular rate for hours over 40 per week or over 8 hours in a 24-hour period — whichever calculation results in more overtime pay. This differs from California's strict daily overtime rule. If you are not receiving proper overtime, you may have a wage claim.

Read More about the Wage & Hour Violation Attorneys for Nevada Employees

Do I need a lawyer for an EEOC or NERC charge?

While not legally required, having an attorney significantly increases your chances of success. Employers almost always have legal counsel for NERC and EEOC responses — you should too. The position statements and evidence presented during agency proceedings can affect the outcome of any subsequent lawsuit.

Read more about the EEOC vs. Nevada NERC

What damages can I recover in a Nevada employment case?

Employees can recover back pay (lost wages), front pay (future lost earnings), emotional distress damages, punitive damages (if employer acted with malice), and attorney's fees under fee-shifting statutes. Damages vary significantly by case type, facts, and the strength of evidence — an experienced attorney can evaluate the value of your specific claim.

Can I sue my employer for workplace discrimination in Nevada?

Yes. Nevada and federal laws prohibit discrimination based on protected characteristics such as race, color, religion, sex, pregnancy, national origin, disability, age, and other protected statuses. If you have experienced unlawful discrimination, you may have the right to file a complaint with the EEOC, NERC, or pursue legal action.

What should I do if I experience retaliation at work?

Document the retaliatory actions, preserve emails and other evidence, and report the issue through appropriate channels when possible. Nevada law protects employees who report unlawful conduct, workplace safety concerns, wage violations, discrimination, or harassment. Consulting an employment attorney early can help protect your rights and evaluate potential claims.

What should I do if I am experiencing sexual harassment at work in Nevada?

If you are experiencing sexual harassment at work, document the incidents, save any relevant emails, messages, or witness information, and report the conduct according to your employer’s policies when appropriate. Nevada and federal laws prohibit workplace sexual harassment, and you may have the right to file a complaint with the EEOC, NERC, or pursue legal action. An employment attorney can help you understand your options and protect your rights.

Can I take legal action if my employer retaliates against me for using FMLA leave?

Yes. The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) prohibits employers from retaliating against eligible employees for requesting or taking protected medical or family leave. If you were demoted, disciplined, denied promotions, had your hours reduced, or were terminated after exercising your FMLA rights, you may have grounds for a legal claim. An FMLA retaliation attorney can evaluate your situation and help you pursue available remedies.
