Employment Claim in Vermont

Under Vermont law, a civil action for an unlawful employment practice must be filed within 1095 days of the alleged violation. This 1095‑day period is the statute of limitations set by 21 V.S.A. § 495b for claims brought under the state’s Fair Employment Practices Act. The substantive prohibition against discriminatory or retaliatory conduct is established in 21 V.S.A. § 495, which defines unlawful employment practices. The statute also sets out the process for filing a complaint and provides for available remedies. Because the calculation of this deadline can depend on the specific facts of each case, the official source at the link above contains the exact statutory language. Use the DocketMath calculator to estimate how this limitation period applies to your own circumstances.
