It is difficult to understand your question, but if you have been discriminated against in some way you may have a claim. I would need to learn more.
I worked remotely and did not inform my manager. This has never been a part of policy or an issue for the 5 years working for this company -- There is still no officially stated policy for doing so. My manager was personally upset I wasn't in the office and that I did not reply to their email... Read more »

This may be a breach of contract. I need to read your contract. Also, I am finding that employers are violating certain laws based on mandated pay polices. I am working on an issue like this now.

No.
An essential part of an age discrimination claim is that you are age 40 or older.
Your question states you are in your mid-twenties.
I constantly ask for the HR departments information and the GM never wants to give it to me he also doesn’t want to give me email documentation over the investigation he did but he wants to speak with me and I honestly don’t know what to do because I feel like they’re trying to set me up

In Texas, it is legal to record a conversation to which you are a party. We are a “one-party consent” state. You do not even need to tell the other party you are recording.
Be sure to state clearly and consistently that, despite your pregnancy, you remain able to perform all of your... Read more »
The background check showing a murder charge instead of attempted murder has made it very difficult to find meanfull employment? Should I sue the county? I was released in 2012 and have notified them of this mistake. It is severely damaging my quality of life.
answered on Nov 27, 2022
It is pointless to sue the county as it is most likely immune from any civil damages in such a case.
I recommend you obtain certified copies of your indictment, any arrest warrant affidavits, and the order disposing of the criminal charges against you and provide them to any prospective... Read more »

This guide is focused on when using this information to screen job applicants constitutes... Read more »
I submitted an ADA request to my employer. They approved it based on a doctor's recommendation without consulting with me. I did not agree to the accommodation approval as it did not accommodate my situation because I have a special needs newborn in and out of the hospital and I need to be... Read more »

Whether an employer has made reasonable accommodations to enable a qualified individual with a disability to perform essential job functions or to have the same privileges as employees without a disability without undue burden on the employer is a fact intensive determination. There is no way of... Read more »
I submitted an ADA request for a 3 day a week with a part-time schedule to my employer signed by a doctor. I'm a 4x combat veteran and have a special needs newborn so I have to make it to appointments.
The employer received the request and approved 4 days based on my doctors... Read more »
answered on Nov 17, 2022
There is something missing in the way you have phrased your question.
What you wrote is that you submitted a request for an accommodation with a doctor's signature, and your employer approved it based on your doctor's recommendations.
That is a textbook example of an... Read more »
I have a lot of documentation on situations and incidents stating back in September of 2021 started documenting the beginning of 2022 in regards to retaliation from management and all shapes and forms what can I do is start to become intolerable to work
answered on Nov 4, 2022
Retaliation is a recognized cause of action in discrimination cases. Maintain a detailed log or diary of your managers’ actions toward you. Then bring it to the lawyer who handled the prior discrimination claim that you think your managers are retaliating against you for. If you can’t bring... Read more »

No, but they can make it a condition of continued employment under many circumstances. If such a test is “job related and consistent with business necessity,” the employer can require a COVID-19 test as a condition of continued employment. This is largely being interpreted as meaning will the... Read more »
I worked part time for a company making the $7.25 minimum hourly wage. The company also had a tip pool on top of their pay, and employees were tipped equally every day. When I quit the job, the manager told me that they were going to withhold my tips from the previous day I had already worked. They... Read more »
answered on Sep 20, 2022
This is a tricky situation. Under federal law, employers are generally only required to pay you at least your state's minimum wage for each hour of work you perform. In the service industry, this means your server wage + your tips received must equal a ground total that averages out to an... Read more »
My employer sold their location to another company. We were advised to WFH permanently with the only condition that we have stable internet.

You are going to need to get the guidance you need from a Texas employment law attorney because that is the location where you are working. A California attorney cannot provide you with sound advice for this.
If you were in California, your employer has the right to make the rules, and as... Read more »
The offer letter contains mine and the employer's signature, the agreed upon salary, and my start date. The director called me and said the person I was replacing changed her mind and wanted her job back. They gave it to her since she was a good and long standing employee. If my current... Read more »

While a review of the document you signed would be necessary to answer this question, job offer letters are usually not considered enforceable contracts. As a result, an employer can rescind a job offer for any reason, even if the employee has already signed an offer letter.
My dad is my boss at work. He left my mother for one of our coworkers. She's half his age and has only been there six months. She's made sexual advances at me that I blow off. Well he fell for it.

Do I need to discuss my mental health issues with my employer?
answered on Dec 1, 2021
I have no idea how an employer would enforce a requirement to "come to work in a good mood," but they could certainly insist on certain behaviors which might suggest that a person is in a good mood, such as being polite to customers or co-workers, greeting customers at the door, smiling...

i don't think i should be forced to voluntarily provide medical information
answered on Nov 10, 2021
Yes, nothing prohibits your employer from asking whether you are vaccinated.
Example, an employee is required to get 10 customer reviews a month. The employee asks 84 customers for reviews but only 6 respond. Is that grounds for termination when the completion of the goal requires a third party participant to follow through?
answered on Oct 20, 2021
Yes. If you are an at-will employee, your employer can terminate you for any reason or no reason, even if it is unfair. Unless you have an employment contract stating otherwise, your employer can terminate you for failing to get the requisite number of customer reviews - even though the goal is... Read more »

More information is needed here. However, filing an EEOC charge against your employer is called a "protected activity," meaning you cannot be retaliated against based on your choice to file the charge. If, after you filed your charge, you noticed your employer started treating you... Read more »

Should I motion to compel in GA along woth motion to transfer to texas court? Bcoz case is pending in Texas court.
answered on Aug 31, 2021
If the case is pending in Texas, then presumably there's no case in Georgia in which to file a motion to compel.
I've been routinely facing backlash and scrutiny for trying to enforce the temporary membership rules. I feel like I'll lose my job if I make people pay for them.

Your boss should back you up on requiring the membership because if you are caught selling to non-members then the entire club's permit could be suspended for 60 days for operating as an "open saloon."
Also, helping someone violate the private club rules is a crime under... Read more »
