Key notes

Wyoming's state law covers most of the federal protected classes with a lower 2-employee threshold. However, Wyoming does not explicitly protect sexual orientation or gender identity at the state level. The 6-month state deadline is shorter than the federal window — file with the EEOC simultaneously.
