Q: What can I do?
My department that I worked for is charging me for equipment, uniforms, etc. they are also charging me more for breaking our contract but are stating I didn’t stay a full year out of the two years I was supposed to stay what do I do?
A: If you believe you are being unfairly charged for equipment, uniforms, or other items by your former employer, and if they are attempting to enforce a contract penalty for not completing the agreed-upon term, you may want to seek legal advice. Review your employment contract carefully to understand the terms and conditions regarding equipment and contract penalties. If you believe the charges or penalties are unjustified or if there are discrepancies in the contract terms, consider consulting with an employment lawyer in Oklahoma.
