My question is will this last evaluation follow me to a new school if I can find a place to go If you're asking whether a copy of your evaluation will be given to a new employer, the answer is almost certainly no. If you're asking whether your employer can share their opinion about your job...

If the hernias have been repaired, what permanent disability are you left with? You may not be entitled to a settlement at all. Since your surgeon doesn't provide impairment ratings (which I find most pecular; sounds more like he won't provide an impairment rating in your case) and assuming...

Same answer as the other board you posted this question on. If the employer wishes to rehire you, they are free to do so.

Are we being harrassed by a chairman of the Board? What you describe is not remotely any form of prohibited harassment. We think we are, but we are stumped as to how this developed and what recourse we have with a Board chairman. You have no legal means to force the chairman to change...

Can they do that? Probably (it depends somewhat on your State's laws) but did they terminate you because of your criminal record or did they terminate you because you lied about it on the application form? If the latter, then you have no recourse. And how the heck did they find it if the...

Yes, you should be worried about your future employment prospects if this is the reference this employer is giving you. Nobody will hire a thief. I suggest you and your parents contact a local employment law attorney right away. It appears this employer is telling an outright lie about you...

If he isn't being hired because of his broken teeth, that is not prohibited discrimination. We also don't know what other candidates your fiance is up against when he's interviewed for these jobs. The job market is still tight in many, many areas and it's possible there are dozens of...

Whether you have legal recourse depends upon exactly what the employer is saying when contacted for a reference. If they are saying you were fired for stealing when they have no proof that you did, then you may have the basis for a cause of action against them. If they are saying you were fired...

You'll need to discuss that with an attorney but bear in mind that the burden of proof will be on you to prove (a) that your former employer lied or was negliglent in what they said, (b) that such lies were broadcast to an "audience," and (c) that you have suffered damages as a result. If...

Nobody is ever justified in striking someone else unless it is a bonafide self-defense situation. You need to report the incident to your manager immediately.

If you post back and say what State you're in, I or someone can advise you what your State's final pay requirements are.

While your employer has made an unfortunate decision, terminating you because they suspect you of stealing or simply because they want to "clean house" of all current employees and thus potentially solve the problem is not illegal. Now I used the stores didgital camera and put it back in its...

If you put yourself in the owner's shoes, you can perhaps understand why the report you made to him is suspect. He's foolish to discount what you told him out of hand however. No, I don't think you should go to the police. (a) That's really up to the business owner to decide whether to...

Unless you can point to a specific incident that occurred at work that caused a re-injury to your foot AND your State WC reg's make employers liable for aggravating pre-existing conditions (not all do), then this is not WC. Just because your foot happened to start swelling at work does not...

Maryland requires that final wages be paid no later than the employee's next regularly scheduled pay day. MD reg's also require that all earned but unused vacation be paid out upon separation. I suggest you contact MD's Department of Labor and file a complaint. It's been two and a-half...

My question is Is there anything I can do about this legally? Only if the reason you are being treated this way is because of your membership in a protected class: race, gender, religion, national origin, handicap, age if over 40, etc. I assume that's not the case or else you would have...

What State are you in?

An employer is free to change the requirements necessary to perform a job anytime they wish to. If management now believes that a four year degree and a special licensing is necessary, then that is their right. It's also possible that depending upon public funding sources and/or contracts the...
