Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a discrimination claim in Florida?
In Florida, you have 365 days to file a charge of discrimination with the Florida Commission on Human Relations. This deadline is shorter than the federal 300-day limit for some claims. Missing this deadline can bar your case.
Can I be fired for any reason in St. Petersburg?
Florida is an at-will employment state, so an employer can fire you for most reasons. However, you cannot be fired for discriminatory reasons like race, age, or disability. You also cannot be fired for retaliation or for exercising a protected right like filing a workers compensation claim.
What types of damages can I recover in an employment case?
You may recover back pay, front pay, emotional distress damages, and attorney fees. In discrimination cases under the Florida Civil Rights Act, there is a cap on damages based on employer size. Punitive damages are also possible in some cases.
