Fla. Std. Jury Instr. (Civ.) 415.12
UNLAWFUL RETALIATION DAMAGES
If you find for (defendant), you will not consider the matter of damages. But if you find for (claimant), you should award (claimant) an amount of money that the greater weight of the evidence shows will fairly and adequately compensate [him] [her] for such damage, including any such damage as (claimant) is reasonably certain to incur in the future. You shall consider the following elements:
[any] [the difference between] lost wages and benefits to the date of trial [and what (claimant) earned during that time].
[any wages and benefits to be lost in the future.]
(other compensatory damages allowable at law.)
[any emotional pain and mental anguish experienced in the past or to be experienced in the future. There is no exact standard for measuring such damages. The amount should be fair and just in the light of the evidence.]
