Remedies under Major Employment Laws Chart (IN)

Summary

This chart provides an overview of the remedies available under the major employment related statutes in the state of Indiana. In particular, this chart summarizes the following relief: (1) economic and compensatory damages, which are intended to compensate plaintiffs or make them whole by restoring them to the place they would have been without the injury or violation; (2) punitive damages, which are used to punish wrongdoers by adding additional penalties; (3) attorney's fees and costs, which may be awarded to prevailing parties under certain statutes; (4) equitable relief, which is almost always nonmonetary in nature and includes restraining orders prohibiting defendants from continuing their harmful behavior; and (5) "other remedies," which captures anything that doesn't fit neatly into any of these categories, such as compensation for expert witness fees.
