If Sasha wins her claim for gender discrimination, she will be entitled to back pay and reinstatement to the former position. If the employee in an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) case is successful, the employer may be liable for back pay of up to two years before the filing of the charge with the EEOC; for front pay for situations when reinstatement is not possible or feasible for claimant; for reinstatement of the employee to his or her position; for retroactive seniority; for injunctive relief, if applicable; and for attorney fees. Gender discrimination (including sexual harassment) and religious discrimination have a $300,000 cap total on nonpecuniary (pain and suffering) compensatory and punitive damages.
