lunch time and freedom of speech

[prusa]

Can a person ger fired, suspended of disciplined because on break a supervisor sat by to listen then take info to the general managemento concerning conversations on there free time....

 

[cbg]

Unless PR has some specific laws about it, yes. Freedom of speech relates to the government, not your employer.

 

[disagreeable]

Your employer can choose to fire you for things you say on facebook or anywhere else, absent a contract to the contrary.

OP, you were having a conversation with whom?

If (1) you were having a conversation with a coworker and (2) said conversation related to conditions at the job, then your employer could potentially violate Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act if it takes adverse action against you for engaging in such a conversation.

If the foregoing conditions exist here, then you should consider contacting the General Counsel's Office of the National Labor Relations Board to petition for unfair labor practice charges against your employer.
