(a) On finding that a respondent engaged in an unlawful employment practice under Section 431.006 as alleged in a complaint, a court may:
(1) prohibit by injunction the respondent from engaging in an unlawful employment practice under Section 431.006; and
(2) order additional equitable relief as may be appropriate.
(b) Additional equitable relief may include:
(1) hiring or reinstating with or without back pay;
(2) upgrading an employee with or without pay; and
