Change provisions of the Nebraska Fair Employment Practice Act to provide for jury trials and prohibit discrimination for exercise of rights under the Nebraska Workers' Compensation Act

This bill amends Nebraska's Fair Employment Practice Act to prohibit employers from discriminating against workers who report work injuries, file claims, or seek remedies under the state's Workers' Compensation Act. It adds a right to a jury trial in all civil cases brought under the Fair Employment Practice Act, including cases against state and local government employers. The bill also updates legal references to clarify that the Fair Employment Practice Act's protections are supplemental to, not replacing, workers' compensation rights. These changes harmonize the two laws and remove outdated sections from the statute.
