Answer to Question 1

A retaliation plaintiff must show that the challenged employer action well might have dissuaded a reasonable worker from making or supporting a charge of discrimination.. The Court held that an indefinite suspension without pay for a month, even if the employee later received backpay, could well act as a deterrent to filing a discrimination complaint. The court concluded that the jury's conclusion that the 37 day suspension without pay was materially adverse, was a reasonable conclusion.

Answer to Question 2
