My fiance is a Police Officer. While the birth of our daughter was near, he asked for time off which he was told he couldn't take it off. He then filed for FMLA which upset his Superiors.
Since filing for FMLA, his take home cruiser was taken 1 hr after filing the paperwork, he has had his shift reassigned 3 times. He had previously approved by his Supervisors months ago for a training to go to. After returning from FMLA, he discovered an officer that has only been a full time officer for a few months and has very little experience was given the training and it was taken away from my fiance.
He has been written up 4 times I think for things all the other employees actively do without getting reprimanded. He has now been suspended for this, while others are not.
His Superiors told him after returning from FMLA they were no longer going to try to make him happy.
I work with the same agency. They treat me poorly as well. I have been getting written up as well. I called in and was written up, which we don't have a policy for, and I don't call in.- No other employees have been written up for that either. Also, after I called in for a shift, the next day his superiors called him into a meeting and told him they were changing his shift yet again, b/c I called in.
Our Superiors have told us in a recent Dept Meeting that our jobs come 1st, our families come 2nd. A few days later in another meeting, they denied saying that.
I am quitting, b/c I can't handle this anymore. I have 4 children at home and cannot raise a family with our schedules constantly changing simply b/c they are mad b/c of him excercising his rights to take FMLA.
Do we have a case for a civil suit?
