Workers in California now have extra protection when it comes to resisting orders they deem discriminatory. The California Supreme Court ruled last week that a supervisor at a cosmetics company who refused to follow her bosses order to fire an employee who wasn't "good enough looking" and replace her with someone "hot" was completely in her rights. The supervisor alleged that the company retaliated by giving her poor evaluations and changing her duties. The court ruled 4 to 2 that she could sue. Labor law experts said the ruling will give California employees stronger rights then any other state.
