Alaska Statutes Title 23. Labor and Workers' Compensation § 23.30.247. Discrimination prohibited

(a) An employer may not discriminate in hiring, promotion, or retention policies or practices against an employee who has in good faith filed a claim for or received benefits under this chapter. An employer who violates this section is liable to the employee for damages to be assessed by the court in a private civil action.

(b) This section may not be construed to prevent an employer from basing hiring, promotion, or retention policies or practices on considerations of the employee's safety practices or the employee's physical and mental abilities; nor may this section be construed so as to create employment rights not otherwise in existence.

(c) This section may not be construed to prohibit an employer from requiring a prospective employee to fill out a preemployment questionnaire or application regarding the person's prior health or disability history as long as it is meant to determine whether the employee has the physical or mental capacity to meet the documented physical or mental demands of the work.
