front pay

Read a random definition: Investor Protection Guide: Advance Fee Fraud

A quick definition of front pay:

Front pay is money given to someone who was treated unfairly at work because of their race, gender, or other reasons. This money is meant to make up for the wages they lost because of the unfair treatment. It starts from the time of the trial and goes until a decision is made. It's like getting paid for the time you missed because of the unfair treatment. Back pay is similar, but it covers the time before the trial.

A more thorough explanation:

Front pay is a type of compensation awarded to an employee who has experienced discrimination or retaliation in the workplace. It is the money given to the employee for the lost compensation that they would have received if they had not been discriminated against or retaliated against.

For example, if an employee was wrongfully terminated from their job due to discrimination, they may be awarded front pay to compensate for the wages they would have earned if they had not been terminated. This compensation is measured from the date of the trial onward until the court comes to a decision.

Front pay is different from back pay, which is the compensation awarded for lost wages that occurred before the trial. The ultimate goal of front pay is to financially compensate the plaintiff for any lost wages as a result of discrimination or retaliation.
