I have been living in the western burbs of Philadelphia, PA and commuting to Highland Park, NJ for the last 1.5 years - commute to NJ office (73 miles one way) although commute to Philadelphia office is only 13 miles one way. This has taken a toll on my gas/tolls/energy (1.5 hours each way) - all other folks who live in my area commute to Phila office. Reimbursed mileage is only over and above the commute mileage to/fro NJ office. Situation at office is that I am being sent further afield (northern NJ and MD) whereby if others were sent, they would get mileage reimbursed - I do not, as they compute my mileage from Highland Park (even if I leave from my home in western burbs).
Contract specifies that move to Phila office is not guaranteed, but will only be considered if I continue to live in PA (I do). A lot of co-workers are raising eyebrows about this lasting situation and say I should demand to work in Phila office - is there any legal basis for which I can ask to be transferred to PA office? Is it time for me to seek legal counsel re. other employment situations at work?
