Labor Code §6310(a) bars discharge or discrimination against an employee for making a bona fide oral or written complaint of unsafe or unhealthful conditions, to the employer, to a union, or to Cal/OSHA, and §6310(b) provides reinstatement and lost wages. What it protects is the complaint, not the assignment. (a) and (d) read the protection as a shield against reassignment generally - an employer may still direct the work, and only an adverse action BECAUSE of the complaint is unlawful. (b) is the same error about supervisors. The one thing close to (a) is Labor Code §6311, which lets an employee refuse to perform work that would violate a safety standard and create a real and apparent hazard.
