30.33. Reprisals are prohibited against a person who, in good faith, makes a report or files a complaint, cooperates in the processing of a report or complaint or accompanies a person who makes a report or files a complaint in accordance with this Act.
It is also prohibited to threaten to take a reprisal against a person to dissuade them from performing an act described in the first paragraph.
The demotion, suspension, termination of employment or transfer of a person or any disciplinary or other measure that adversely affects the employment or working conditions of a person is presumed to be a reprisal. Depriving a person of any right, subjecting them to differential treatment or suspending or expelling them is also presumed to be a reprisal.
