No Employer shall discharge, terminate a contract with, reduce compensation to, or otherwise discriminate against or take adverse action against any Traffic Control Worker for opposing any practice prohibited by this chapter, for participating in proceedings related to this chapter, for seeking to enforce rights under this chapter by any lawful means, or for otherwise asserting rights under this chapter. Protections in this section shall apply to any Traffic Control Worker who mistakenly, but in good faith, alleges noncompliance with this chapter. Taking any adverse action against a Traffic Control Worker within 90 days of the Traffic Control Worker’s exercise of rights protected under this chapter shall raise a rebuttable presumption of having done so in retaliation for the exercise of such rights. (Ord. 3557 § 1, 2023).
