Protecting Albuquerque's Federal & Contractor Workforce
Albuquerque is home to vital federal installations like Kirtland Air Force Base and Sandia National Laboratories, alongside numerous defense contractors. Employees in these sectors often have unique federal protections under statutes like USERRA for military service members, the Defense Contractor Whistleblower Protection Act (DCWPA), and the Energy Reorganization Act (ERA) for nuclear and energy-related whistleblowing. We evaluate these complex federal claims nationwide.
Addressing Discrimination and Wage Violations
Beyond specialized federal protections, employees in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and Santa Fe are protected by core federal anti-discrimination laws. This includes the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) for disability discrimination and reasonable accommodations, and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) for protected leave. We also evaluate federal wage-and-hour claims under the FLSA, addressing issues like unpaid overtime, misclassification, and off-the-clock work.
