If you one believe that you have been a victim of sex discrimination by your employer, it is vital to get informed and know your rights as an Employee to ensure your legal rights are protected. Here’s a section of my book “The Employee Rights Handbook” that deals with just that.

If you are involved in the Military and have been fired…READ HERE!!

Serving the military is one of the most honorable vocations a man or women can partake in. As a result, the law protects these men and women and mandates particular treatment employers must abide by to ensure reasonable accommodations and safeguards. However, employers continue to fire employees unlawfully as a result of military service.

If you were fired or believe that your employer acted negatively towards you as a result of your service, your employer may have acted illegally. It is vital to get informed and know your rights as an Employee to ensure your legal rights are protected. Here’s a section of my book “The Employee Rights Handbook” that deals with just that.

Promises Aren’t Meant to be Broken!

Employers are not immune from liability when they use broad statements such as: “permanent employment,” “job for life,” or “just cause termination,” giving employees more legal rights than you would think. Have you been promised job security, whether by written contract or by an employer’s word? If so, you may be entitled the right to rely on such promises.

If you were fired but believe that your employer promised you job security in some way, you may be a victim and have a right to a claim. It is vital to get informed and know your rights as an Employee to ensure your legal rights are protected. Here’s a section of my book “The Employee Rights Handbook” that deals with just that.

If You See Something, Say Something?

Actions that constitute wire fraud, bank fraud, securities fraud, and violations of the rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission are sadly commonplace in the business world that require extensive investigations and procedures. Additionally, it is not out of the realm of reason for employees not to want illegal activity happening within their workplace. It is for this reason, and many more, that negative treatment by an employer towards an employee who assists in such investigations is illegal.

If you were fired, demoted, suspended, threated, or harassed in any way by an employer as a result of a complaint or assisting with an investigation, you may have a “whistleblower” claim. It is vital to get informed and know your rights as an Employee to ensure your legal rights are protected. Here’s a section of my book “The Employee Rights Handbook” that deals with just that.

When Employers “Retaliate”…

As an employee, you should feel comfortable reporting wrongdoings or potential illegal activities. Similarly, an employer would benefit from knowing such accusations, in order to make the business the best it possibly can be. Unfortunately however, the reality is, some employers punish those who make formal complaints or reveal transgressions.

If you were fired or believe that your employer acted negatively towards you as a result of a complaint, you may be a victim of “Retaliation Discrimination.” It is vital to get informed and know your rights as an Employee to ensure your legal rights are protected.
