Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

My husband was assaulted on the job yesterday. The assaulter was taken to jail. My husband did not fight back in anyway in fear of losing his job, and got a beating. The police came and arrested my husbands assaulter. The action taken on the assaulter was nothing. He's back at work today, he was not suspended or fired, but my husband was moved to a different department, different hours, turned our life upside down....What can we do?
